Letter from the President

A person's choice of outdoor gear, especially that of hunters and fishermen, is a source of personal pride and satisfaction. That doesn't mean you must have the most expensive gun, rod, knife, boots, or whatever, but the gun should be clean, well maintained, and accurate. Your knife should shave, and hopefully the boots will be well broken-in before tackling a major extended hunt. As outfitters in Alaska, we have guided hunters and fishermen into the Alaskan bush for years. One fact is - and has always been -  each man's gear is going to play a major role in determining his success, comfort, and enjoyment.

At Knives of Alaska, we understand what it means to rely on your gear. We've never lost sight of the fact that the knife of a dedicated hunter, fisherman or outdoorsman has two important aspects. First, and most important, it is a precision tool that must perform the task at hand efficiently, safely, and reliably time after time, year after year. Second, a man's knife is an investment and one of his personal objects of pride. It is a measuring stick among his peers.

We make award-winning outdoorsman's knives that are used and respected by some of the best professional guides and outfitters, hunters, and other outdoorsmen in Alaska, and across the globe. To say that our knives are field-tested is an understatement. We carry them across Southeast Alaska's glacier fields, through swamps, across tundra, and in the mountains, using them in all manner of chores. If something doesn't work, it gets corrected or eliminated in a hurry!

All of our knives, from our new line of folders to our award winning cleavers, our hatchets, combination sets, and fixed blade hunters, are quality outdoor cutlery for the self-reliant outdoorsman who demands the very best in his gear. It doesn't matter if you're hunting whitetails in a local woodlot or after a big Alaskan brown bear, your gear will still be one of the things that sets you apart and makes the hunt more enjoyable. Our promise to you is that our lifetime guaranteed knives are made to exacting quality standards that will ensure satisfaction and pride of ownership. They work for us in the harsh field conditions of bush Alaska-and they will work for you, time after time, year after year-wherever you hunt or fish.

Thank you for your confidence in our products. Enjoy the great outdoors and be sure to take a youngster hunting and fishing with you.

Charles Allen,

President and Owner

My friend call me the "Knife Guy" because I have many - some expensive and some not but - for the money I think yours are the Best.

"I called your office for the first time with a technical question about the steel currently being used in your Bush Camp Knife. Fully expecting to get several phone menus and eventually a message, a gal answered on the second ring. I asked her the question. She answered it very knowledgeably, much to my surprise. I was elated to talk with a real person right off the bat and someone who knew what she was talking about. I wish more companies ran theirs the way you run yours. The gal should be complimented for her professionalism. I will continue to buy your products and promote your company to all who will listen."

I just used my new Yukon to dress and quarter out my 1st deer of the year. Great knife, very maneuverable and wicked Sharp. Thanks for a great product.

Another gem in the KOA line is the Alpha Wolf. This sleek, 3.5-inch blade, dropped point hunter is a delight to use.

My daughter recently asked me for a knife suggestions for her husband and I couldn't wait to tell her how happy I am with your knives. I have gutted, skinned and butchered an entire white tail deer with a cub bear not having to sharpen it at all during the process. I would not believe that had I not done it myself. You make a great product!
