INTRODUCING: THE MKC POCKET ACES KNIFE Media
Published: 6 days ago
Years ago, Josh Smith bought back one of his favorite custom knives he'd previously sold to a collector. It still hangs in his office. A double recurve with Damascus steel blade and bolsters, fossilized woolly mammoth ivory, and 18 karat gold pins.
The Pocket Aces began from that knife. We kept its shape and carved tail, but swapped the ivory and Damascus for carbon fiber, fluted titanium, and MagnaCut. Then we shaped the handle and fitted the bolsters until it met the same high standards as Josh's custom work.
A year ago, we couldn't have built this knife for production. And now that we can, we're only building it once.
Each Pocket Aces is heat-treated and carries Josh's custom mark on one side of the blade and the MKC logo on the other. This knife is a collector's piece, but like every one of our knives it's built as a tool to be used and passed down.
The name comes from Old West lore about high stakes card players who had to turn in their guns when they came into town... but kept a knife like this tucked in a sleeve or vest.
