Grohmann and D.H. Russell teamed up to design a truly Canadian outdoor knife and through trial and testing with hunters and trappers came up with this first design in the line. By our last count, our knives have been copied by more than 16 different companies over the years that have come and gone, ours is still the only one in production after 50 years. High quality materials, along with outstanding designs and talented craftspeople, make this knife a winner.
-Regular "sabre" grind blade comes up about halfway on the blade. Our regular classic grind makes for a thicker, stronger blade, and was designed ideally for hunting and skinning/dressing.

German knife maker Rudolph Grohmann came to Pictou, Nova Scotia, with his family in 1949. Determined in his trade to make knives, he built a garage workshop to begin producing and engraving folding knives.
Grohmann Knives Limited was formed in 1961 by the family and was run by one of Grohmann's daughters, Berta, & her husband Michael Babinec Sr. They passed the family business down to their three sons who all worked in the business together at one time. Today, Michael Jr. along with his daughter Michelle are running the business in its same location in Pictou Nova Scotia with approximately 25 employees.
At Grohmann Knives, making knives is as much an art as a trade. The top quality knives are produced with as many as 53 steps between starting point & finished product.
