This is a transparent look at how we're building knives at Work Sharp today.
The Work Sharp Madrone starts as a block of aluminum.
From there it passes through dozens of hands, machines, inspections, and processes before becoming the knife that lands in your pocket.
In this episode, we're opening the doors and showing you every major step along the way. You'll meet the machinists programming toolpaths, the operators running parts, the quality team checking tolerances, the technicians applying coatings, the assemblers building knives, and the people responsible for making sure every Madrone meets our standards before it ships.
Some of this process will change. Some of it will move in-house. Some of it will evolve into new opportunities. That's part of the journey.
This is Work Sharp Manufacturing.
