Knafs@Nite - December 13, 2024

Hello Everyone and welcome to the latest episode of Knafs@Nite - our weekly video round-up where we share with you all the exciting things about Knafs and the world around us.

Before we proceed, please note that Austin has shaved is mustache. Amazing guy. Love him around the office. We're all STUNNED.

Anyway, let's go on...

Knews

Knife Design Nitty Gritty

How does a Knafs knife go from an idea to the final product? Take a trip into the brain of Ben Petersen. Watch out for the Frog Eye Salad!

Sidenote: this is the stuff we love. Ben, raw and honest about how he takes a concept to reality. Not a lot of knifemakers spill the tea on their process. But, with Ben, this is the way...

Weekly Giveaway

Did you know that if you sign up for our newsletter on our website, you will be entered to win a Lander 1?

Last week, Julius from Denmark won. DENMARK! That's not a city in Ohio.

Note: we will not bombard you with emails!

Niños Knife Kit

Starting today (12.13.24) any order over $24 includes an opportunity to get your kids involved in the world of knives! 3D printed in our Knafs secret lair, this knife kit gets your little ones acclimated to knives without the need to stock up on Band-Aids!
Landeriimote
Now available for all three Landers - Landeriimote Scales!

Moon Crew Moment

Taking a little side-quest this week into the world of Reddit. Because, well, Reddit is a whole vibe that cannot totally be ignored!

Baby Banter Fixed Blade Clip Point

No! This is not AI. This is real. We just hope that the person who did this didn't mess up the heat treat - because it looks awesome.

Lander 1 - Harpoon Edition

Another custom grind where we hope the person was quenching often, because this is heckin' cool! Granted, we don't know the function of a harpoon style blade. #grapestabbing

If you want to be part of our “Moon Crew”, head right here to join up!

Ship Shape Sharpening Shop 

This is our opportunity to brag about Keith. He could put a razor sharp edge on a tomato if we let him. For now, he's sticking to making knives scary sharp.

Product Spotlight

This week we're focusing on our friends at Lazy 3 Leather.

We currently have their leather sheaths for the Lulu (available now) and El Lulu Grande (coming soon). Expect to see their pocket sheath for the Lander 4 once the knife launches early next year!

Head over to their site to check out some of the other quality leather products they make.

Tempest Knives - Microjet
Casey, over at KnivesFAST, has designed a knife. Check it out here.
Note: The ASMR on the opening of this knife is WILD.

SIDETRACKED: EDC Update

You have to remember that the boys are just riffing off of one another, so sometimes they get sidetracked. This is one of those times!

Olight IMINI 2
Like a lot of us, Austin is a fan of Olight. He's carrying their iMini 2. For something so small, it's kind of a big deal.
Nomatic Travel Pack
Ben is quite the world traveler. His pack of choice right now is this bag from Nomatic.

Mailbox: Part 2 - The Comments!!!

Where's the Lander 2 Clip Point?!?!

Where indeed! Shh... They're on order. But, if you're in a jam we have a few Lander 3 CP's left in stock.

Feedback: So that wasn't a tank?

A couple of weeks ago, when we went to visit the set of Homestead, Ben fell in love with a tank. After all, Ben is a tank guy. But - was it a tank? 

Between us: if it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck - amirite?

Worldwide Clip-points!

When WILL those crazy Lander clip points be available outside of North America?

Moon Crew Pledge!

There is a pledge - and @2thehat wants it on a t-shirt. BUUUUUT Austin wants 99 more people to say they want one!

#SlopeAppeal

We're getting a lot of great feedback about our clip point blades.

Funeral Potatoes are NOW available for positive holiday events!

First off, "Ernest Goes To Camp" is one of the best movies from the 80s - and if you were growing up then, you know that's saying a lot.

Second, @ErnestPworrell88 has just repurposed the best version of potatoes ever made - for Thanksgiving!

Breaking the 4th Wall - Nick here - I emailed Ben earlier this week to tell him that my kids want them on our Christmas table. I'm just going to put this out there - Ben Petersen is a Jedi! I have never wanted to try such a macabre form of potatoes - but am glad I am not alone!

Send Us Mail!

We love getting mail here at the office. So, if you've got something weird and wild you want to send us direct it here:

Knafs
570 E 1700 S #206
Clearfield, UT 84015

Edge of Intelligence 

You just never know what the prompt is going to spit out. We love AI. AI can't love us because it's not sentient. But still.

Fresh Prints

We don't know how many of you are Star Wars fans, but - whoa. This may just blow you lovely minds. 

Psst. Austin and Ben - she's the "Armorer"! You owe everyone in the office one Chinese Snacking Plum!

"The Lander Song"

Our friend Karsten, from Germany, has written a song about thew Lander. This is utterly amazing.

Boom. Done! 

There have you it! We really hope you got everything you expected and then some from this episode of Knafs@Nite. Make sure to subscribe to our channel on YouTube so you don't miss anything come out of the world of Knafs!

See you next time!
