Happy Father's Day- Father/Son Knife Companies

[WedgeAntilles]

I'm a man who's been through some stuff, both losing my dad relatively young and losing my first son, so the day is complicated for me. It's one of the things I love about the knife community is the fatherhood dynamic. And it's not lost on me that my four favorite knife companies all have a heavy father/son connection.

Here's my top 4 both for their knives and the fatherhood element:
Chris Reeve Knives
Arno Bernard Knives
G&G Hawk Knives
Koenig Knives

First, I’m sorry for your losses. The father/son thread that runs through this hobby is one of my favorite things about it too, and some of my favorite makers also have a strong father/son connection

My father D DevinT is a Blade Cutlery hall of fame knifemaker and Damascus maker but we do not share a knife business.

Yet one of the greatest combos ever! Thank you!
