Our story
The story of our journey began in high school, when two friends decided to embark on an ambitious project: crafting spears in a homemade forge built from a kitchen sink and powered by a leaf blower. One of us quickly outgrew the adventure, moving on to other pursuits. The other, however, took a different path—serving our country in the military. For two years, Carson was on the frontlines of building this company from the ground up, listening to feedback from friends, family, and early customers, and constantly refining our approach. Along the way, we made countless adjustments to ensure we deliver the best possible product. After that, fate brought us back together, and we realized that our shared passion for craftsmanship and dedication to quality could lead to something truly special. And that, in essence, is how this company came to be. With our combined skills, we set out to build a business doing what we love—creating knives that people not only want but need. Whether it's a striking showpiece, a reliable everyday carry, or our favorite, a bit of both. Creating knifes that seamlessly blend both form and function—we’re committed to crafting something truly remarkable. Our goal is to produce knives that anyone would be proud to own, and we’re especially excited to work with customers to create pieces tailored just for them. As you may have gathered, we are both strong believers in Christ, and we strive to align our work with His will. Our faith is at the core of everything we do, and we aim to honor Him through our craft and our commitment to integrity in all aspects of the business. We're excited for what lies ahead and are grateful for the opportunity to share our passion with you.

Carson Moran CEO/Owner
Hi, my name is Carson Moran, and I am a 25-year-old full-time bladesmith. I am an Eagle Scout and a former Infantry Marine, my experience in the military has given me a deep appreciation for the importance of a reliable, well-crafted knife. After transitioning from the military, I discovered a passion for not only creating functional knives but also designing pieces with unique aesthetic appeal. This passion led me to pursue a career as a professional knife maker, where I have dedicated myself to refining my skills and perfecting my craft. For me, knife-making is more than just a profession; it is a lifelong pursuit. I take great pride in producing high-quality knives that are not only visually striking but also perform flawlessly in any situation. Whether intended for outdoor activities, culinary use, or personal protection, I believe that a well-made knife is an essential, making an enduring tool that can be passed down through generations. With every new piece I create, I am committed to pushing the boundaries of my craft, ensuring that my customers receive knives they can truly cherish and rely on.

My name is Corban Eby I’m 24 and I was born in Alaska, where I am of Alaskan Native descent. When I was four years old, my family relocated to North Carolina to establish a Bible college. I spent much of my life in Charlotte, North Carolina, with a few years in Newnan, Georgia, where I earned my degree in Applied Theology. During my time in Bible college, I worked the night shift assisting with the construction of the Domestic Terminal at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. After college, I returned to Charlotte, where I worked as a steelworker and fabricator for several years before transitioning to various sales roles. Eventually, I partnered with Carson Moran to create custom knives, joining him in his pursuit of craftsmanship. This opportunity allows me to combine my passion for hands-on work with my artistic side, and I am thrilled to be part of this endeavor. I am excited about the future and eager to continue innovating and growing in this field. I believe that each job I have held throughout my life has uniquely prepared me for my current work, and I look forward to what lies ahead.
