I'm about to buy a canal street canitler

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.

I've only handled one, once, but was very impressed.

I'm impressed with all CSC knives!

I'd go for the Elk horn! ::tu::

The Cannitler is my EDC. It is the best knife that Canal Street makes in my opinion. I happen to be partial to whittlers, but I've watched these knives get put together, and this is a very sound pocket knife with a beefy blade in a compact package.

I have one or two of them myself and they are very nicely made. I think you'd be happy with one, either to put in your collection or in your pocket as an edc.

Hey Phil you are so right,I do love it and plan to EDC from now on.It fits very nice in the pocket and it seems to be a good solid made knife.It is the first cannitler I have ever owned,the first knife made of the D2 steel,and the first CS I own so it should be fun to try it out.Thanks for the info about the knife.WTG Canal Street.
