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

What They're Saying
Three years ago my brother gave me a set of your filet knives for x-mas; I just wanted to let you know, they are absolutely the finest knives I have ever used to filet fish. I don't know how many salmon have put these knives to the test, but it has been considerable. When they finally dull a bit, they can be brought right back to a razor sharpness in a couple strokes. Thank you for a superior product. Mike Gillis

Your "Bush Camp" knife is the finest all-around, do everything knife I've ever owned or used. And with over 40 years hunting experience, I've used a bunch of knives. Thanks. Keep up the good work.

"I wanted to commend Knives of Alaska on an outstanding product. For the price, I have never had a better heat treat and quality steel."
– Alan Wilkinson
My wife bought me two of your knives several years ago and I love the quality. I have skinned and butchered entire deer without having to sharpen my Cub. I have the Cub/Camp combo and they are the sharpest, finest made knives I own. Thanks for a great product!

While hunting for elk in Idaho this year I accidentally broke the tip of my Cub knife. My knife set is the Light Hunter Combo with stag handles and I sent the complete knife set back for repairs. When I received my combo back with both knives replaced I was shocked. The note read "we are replacing both knives. The LT Hunter marrow is very porous and will allow liquid to soak into it." Then about a week after I received the new knives a check for the shipping cost was refunded in my name as well. That is customer service and I intend to let everyone know just how good the products are and how great the service is.
