For a knife that is 100% American look no further than Jeremy Robertson of Calavera Cutlery who uses materials that are 100% sourced in the USA. He uses high quality materials in the construction like 6Al-4V titanium for light weight strength and CTS-XHP blade steel, a corrosion resistant version of D2 with exceptional edge retention and toughness in its class. Jeremy uses caged ball bearing pivot for quick, smooth deployment of the blade and his knives feature hardened steel lock face inserts for life-long, rock solid lock up. The tumbled, acid wash finish looks great and helps the knife to wear well over time. With a sub 5" closed length and a thickness around 1/2" both the Model 4 and Small El Patron would make a great consideration for EDC. The Model 4s have dove-tailed G10 insets for some color and the Small El Patrons use titanium slab handles in a few different color/texture options. Check them out now at GPKnives.com.
