Latest Canal Street Additions

Former Schrade President Walley Gardner and principal Joe Hufnagel joined with nine master cutlers to form a group of US craftsmen with over 300 years of combined knife making experience to create Canal Street Cutlery. It was first located in upstate New York where a long and rich tradition of quality knife making dates back to the 19th century. Unfortunately, the company closed its doors in 2015, but not before making some great knives. The brand was resurrected in 2018 as Canal Street Cutlery Co-Op & focused on making very small batches of high quality traditional knives. As a Co-Op, it was owned by the knife makers who worked there. Unfortunately, the business model couldn't hold up & the entity again ceased production.

This is the only CSC knife i have left. Not a new addition. I bought it in 2015. Made by Eric Albers for BladeForums, 4" Serpentine Double End Shadow Jack, 440C & Mexican Bocote.
I think it is one of the best knives that was made at CSC.

Roland that is a beautiful knife. The veins of color on that are over the top.

I didn’t think I cared for those red stag knives when they came out, but seeing them all together like that has changed my mind. Those are really nice.

Thank you Mark. Yes this Bocote wood is about as fine as it gets. But there is so much more to admire in this knife. The design is superb, all just essential folding knife, no embellishments and it all flows together to create perfect 'balance'. And then there is the precise workmanship with just the right amount of spring tension and snap. Topped off with steel liners.
I am lucky to have this knife. There are not many 'out there'.

Do you know if that model was the last knife that Canal Street Cutlery made before they closed their doors? I remember someone saying that it was but I never got any confirmation.

Rick it is my understanding that that was the final knife produced by Canal Street Cutlery before they shut down. If I'm wrong, I hope Eric will let us know otherwise.

So...are you guys considering the Co-Op knives as separate from the Canal Street Cutlery knives?
The last Co-Op knives were the second run of Red Trouts and the Moore Makers.
