    Grohman is canadian made in pictou Nova Scotia if you’re not going custom. They have a scratch and dent section too at roughly half price.

    Support canadian if you can and there’s no reason not too as their products are far better than any Chinese piece of shit with a fancy name.

    I’ll second the Grohmann! For the cost they are hard to beat . . . I’ve owned two and only bought a second one to replace the one that took a dive into the lake.

    I have a fallkniven h1 that I love, had it for years and take it everywhere except longer backpacking trips. The only drawback is i prefer a leather sheath, they don't make noise if you bump them.

    I also have a Grohmann belt knife and that is a great recommendation for a Canadian made knife that will last years.


    I have a benchmade folder that i really like as well. I find i dont like having a belt knife on with a heavy pack so i like having a good folding knife thats easy to get at and always on you.

    2nd for North Arm Knives!! Locally made it Burnaby by a father/Son team. Awesome products. The Lynx is my favourite, fillet knives are awesome too. Very good customer service.

    I would order any of these online for the best price, Grohmann direct and check their seconds if you want to get a better deal. I imagine a good custom knife starts at 600 and although there are great craftsmen making them across the country you would have no real assurance of any warranty from a small business. How much are you looking to spend? My H1 was about 400$

    edit- Randall knives have been around for years and they are custom knives, but you either wait 5 years or pay a premium. I would have some confidence they will still be making knives down the road. That would probably cost you 5-600 usd, I haven’t looked lately

    No argument with the Grohman comments however if you are spending a few hundred you may wish to contact Blacklab on this site, he is a phenomenal knife maker and you will not be disappointed if you order one made by him.

    Cheers and be well.../B
