Welcome to Finch Knife Co.
Founded in 2019, It began with a vision shared by two life long friends, Spencer Marquardt and Steve Laughlin. Their passion for knives, combined with an unyielding commitment to merging timeless designs with contemporary innovation, ignited the creation of a brand that stands at the intersection of traditional and modern.
Our journey began with the Finch Runtly in 2020 and has expanded to encompass a diverse range of 20 distinctive models, each meticulously designed to embody both functionality and aesthetic appeal. Our knives aren't merely tools; they're an extension of the user's personality.
At Finch, we believe that a knife should be more than just a blade—it should be an experience, a companion that tells a story of generations past while embracing the technology of today.
As we continue to grow and innovate, our commitment remains steadfast—to produce knives that pay homage to the legacy of blade craftsmanship while carving out a new path for the future. We invite you to explore our collections, discover the details that set us apart, and join us on our journey.
Thank you for being a part of the Finch Knife Co. story.
