FROM THE MAKER:
Joe Kious is an extremely talented artist and a knifemaker of the highest caliber. His humble and patient presence is reflected in his timeless workmanship. Each of his knives exhibit an identifiable "Kious" style. He often makes upscale folders and automatics using the finest materials. "My passion is for folding knives, simply because they actually get carried, and consider ornate folding knives necessary jewelry for every gentleman's pocket, and indeed for every lady's purse..." Joe admits his love for knives started at an early age, "I probably made my first knife with no intent to sell it while I was in my teens."
Joe understands that what is most important in a knife is that it must first cut. His knives underscore that no matter how artistic, how expensive, how pretty, a knife is intended to be used. Another quality important to Joe is the long term workmanship. His knives are made to last many lifetimes, passing from generation to generation. Kious commented that, "I believe that the ornate folders I make are kin to fine watches, and are collectibles of the same caliber."
I will be selling much of my collection including many High End Customs and Randall knives over the next few weeks so, , Please take a look at my other listings. Thank you.
