You may not remember when a tool was built to last a lifetime.
When American-made meant something.
We do.
While others race to the bottom, we choose the harder road—
To source from our countrymen.
To hire Americans with heart.
To keep traditional craftsmanship alive.
We challenge you to buy less junk—
And choose fewer, better things that truly enrich your life.
Yes, it costs more.
Because we don’t cut corners. Ever.
Every knife we make is forged with grit, excellence, and purpose.
And we lead by example—nose to the grindstone.
“Knives like these were carried in the Colosseum… cuts like a demon.”
“The knife has ruined my collection. It is a very well thought out EDC knife… It is my first Medford, but won’t be the last.”
“The knife rings like a tuning fork when opened with a good flick. It literally sings a soft note for a couple of seconds. It’s wild.”
“Medford tolerances are so beyond well‑engineered and the fit and finish… impressive.”
After 130,000+ semi-custom knives, above is a real-time count of how many revisited us to freshen up through our Legacy Services. As we took a look at that data, it’s a testament to our obsessive attention to detail and care when making your knife.
With MKT knife, whether you buy it from us, or you acquire one from any of our various dealers around the world, you get access to our “Generational Guarantee”
Through our RMA (return merchandise) process, your knife can revisit it’s birthplace for a sharpening or repair.
This process is similar to any high end watches, jewelry, musical instruments or other various timepieces that require care or repair over the years.
For us, there’s often a sentiment as a knife returns to the factory. It often brings up fond memories and history as we flexed our manufacturing muscle over the years.
For you, you get a product that is backed by the very team who made it, for life.
