Josh and Brandon reached out about five years ago, and the reason was John Dudley. The bowhunter swore by both his ARES DIVER-1 and his Montana Knife — and made it his tradition to "blood" the two of them together every year on opening day. That's how we found each other: through a man who trusted both our tools when it counted. In the years since — the visits, the hours spent with Josh and Brandon — I've come to respect everything about the people and the purpose behind Montana Knife Company. Two crafts, one standard.
