"Tactile Knife Company has a massive leg up from most new knife companies because we already have a team of talented craftspeople, a large shop for amazing new equipment, and more turning capacity than basically any other knife company, period, thanks to our years of experience making quality machined pens.

Many of the biggest knife companies make most of what they sell, but quite a few outsource it to the cheapest options around the world. Almost none actually make their own screws and pivots. Our intention is to make everything we possibly can in our shop, only buying raw materials and ceramic ball bearings from two outside companies because they have equipment that just doesn’t make sense at our scale."
