Knife U in session.

This week we had the whole crew hands-on with pivot swaps—learning how to tune our knives from manual to auto (and back) with help from the folks who designed them. No shortcuts. No mystery. Just taking things apart, asking questions, and getting better at it together.

If we’re going to build knives the right way, everyone here needs to understand how they actually work. This is what that looks like behind the scenes.

More to come as we keep learning, breaking things down, and building them back better.
