North Arm is a small (father and son) knifemaker in Vancouver BC, Canada. We use a CNC mill to shape our knives and scales followed by multiple hand finishing steps. We do everything in house starting with raw materials. The lines on the bevels are a result of the machining process and part of our signature look. The scales are attached with stainless screws and standoffs instead of pins. This means they can be easily removed for cleaning or replacement using a couple 1/16th Allen wrenches if need be. Due to their replaceability we don't grind the scales and tang together to match (this way a new pair of scales would fit any given knife of a certain model); this means the tang and scales don't line up as perfectly as you may be used to; however the fit is very close.
These are our two kitchen knives, the 8" Salal chef's knife and the 3.5" Trillium paring knife. They are made from high quality materials (see specs), giving them excellent durability and edge retention. Visit our website for more info and pictures of the knives, other interesting knife related topics or to purchase a knife. *A note to american customers: the US dollar is currently stronger than the Canadian dollar, which means approximately another 7% savings for you!
