JS1:
The Knife That Started It All

5449B62E-1506-4553-8775-99507662ECC9.jpg

The JS1 is where it all began. Our first production knife designed by John, and the model that launched our line. Compact, versatile, and lightweight, the JS1 is built to handle everything from everyday carry to trail use. With clean lines and a balanced profile, it delivers dependable performance without unnecessary bulk.

A detail that sets the JS1 apart is the finely cut jimping along the spine. Unlike the oversized notches found on many knives, our jimping is precision-made for comfort and control. It locks in your thumb or forefinger with just the right amount of traction, giving you a confident grip without irritation, making it perfect for long cutting sessions or detailed work.

Whether you’re slicing cord, prepping food by the fire, or carrying it as a daily companion, the JS1 offers that rare mix of practicality, control, and comfort in hand.
