Hinderer Knives

Showing all 3 results

In the mid-1980s, Rick Hinderer began his knife-making journey making art knives in a small 14′ x 18′ turkey coop with no modern amenities, like heat or running water! Art knives are a far cry from the tactical scene in which Rick is so deeply entrenched now. Over the years, his meticulous attention to knife design and knife making, coupled with his real-world experience as a Fire Fighter / EMT, sets him apart from the rest.

Rick’s design philosophy is deeply rooted in his experience with using his knives as part of his first responder tools. That catalyst of change from art knives to hard use tactical was after Rick joined the rescue dive team. He began to look at knives and designs more as hard use tactical tools than works of art. Rick began changing over from old-world knife-making techniques to modern CNC precision manufacturing. With the combination of designing art knives and his real-world experience as a first responder, this unusual perspective allows him to create hard use tactical folders that are not only aesthetically pleasing to the eye but extremely comfortable in hand. All of Rick’s products are engineered to go the distance when it counts the most, whether it be when life is on the line or you need a good cutting tool!
