FAQ:
Where is the MSK-1 Mini EDGE X made?
After an extensive USA and global search, we selected a manufacturer renowned for their exceptional craftsmanship, uncompromising quality, and ability to deliver on promised dates.
Do to their exceptional skill, attention to detail and advanced manufacturing processes, this manufacturer allows us to offer you this exceptional knife, that is every bit as good as a custom-made knife system, yet at a fair and competitive price point, without compromise.
While we are passionate about manufacturing in the USA, recent geopolitical and national policy changes have made it challenging to do so. Also there are VERY few companies who have the capabilities to manufacture knives as technically complex as the MSK-1 line.
However, we have a dream of establishing a knife and tool-making shop in Northern Pennsylvania, depending on the success of this - upcoming - Kickstarter campaigns and customer support. See "The Dream" portion of our Kickstarter Campaign Story for more.
Rest assured, our manufacturing partner in Yangjiang has proven to be extraordinarily detail oriented, capable and competent, exceeding our expectations in every way.
We will continue to manufacture our MSK-1 ELITE line of knives in the USA, albeit with much longer wait / production times and at much higher costs.
However, by supporting this campaign, you're not only getting an incredible, innovative knife built for a lifetime of use - but you are also contributing to our vision to do our part to return manufacturing to the USA.
We're excited for you to experience the exceptional quality of our MSK-1 Mini EDGE knife and the rest of the MSK-1 X (Gen2) lineup.
