INTRODUCING

The Everyday Knife is the result of a quiet collaboration between &SONS and blacksmith Alex Pole – a maker whose craft is measured not in minutes, but in thousands of strikes on steel. Designed for the daily carry, this is a tool shaped with purpose, patience, and the hard-won skill only years at the anvil can teach.

In the hand, the knife feels honest; balanced, solid, and reassuring without unnecessary weight. The bevels are ground by Alex himself, and because they’re finished by hand, every edge carries the maker’s signature quality. This is a piece designed for daily use, from campfire cooking to simple tasks around the workshop.

Made with intention and built to last, the Everyday Knife will earn its character with every use. Something to keep, carry, and eventually pass on – a small piece of craft that outlives trends and celebrates the makers who keep these traditions alive.

ORIGINS

Every blade begins life as a simple bar of Swedish 80CrV2 steel. From there, Alex heats, hammers, tempers, and shapes it by eye - reading colour, not gauges, listening to rhythm over noise. No shortcuts. No automation. Just the fundamental practice of forging: steel, fire, anvil, and a craftsman who knows exactly how they respond.

The Everyday Knife is assembled component by component, all crafted by hand. A bronze bolster is milled and fitted, a red G10 spacer adds a subtle strike of colour, and the walnut handle is shaped, sanded, and oiled for a warm, natural grip. The sheath is made to fit the knife, not the other way round.

Twelve knives only. Each one slightly different, each one entirely his own making.
