Chris Reeve Knives

Chris Reeve began manufacturing knives in South Africa in 1984. Chris transitioned from a full-time tool and die maker to a full-time knife maker and gradually built his knife business. Eventually Chris was able to hire employees as he became a well-known name in the knife industry. In March 1989, Chris and his wife Anne moved to Boise, Idaho where they still are today.

Chris Reeve knives are known for their extremely tight tolerances and fit and finish. Each knife features premium materials like titanium, S35VN, and others in that realm.

If you're one of those knife enthusiasts that likes to get straight to the point, our best-selling Chris Reeve knives are the Sebenza 21, Umnumzaan, and Mnandi.

From Chris Reeve as of June 2019:

If a Chris Reeve Knives product fails to function as it was originally designed due to faulty workmanship or materials, such defects will be made good free of cost. This guarantee applies for the life of the knife.
