Welcome to On The Brink Steel Works

 

Shawn Brinkerhoff is the founder of On The Brink Steel Works, an Idaho-based knife crafting business known for its high-quality, hand-crafted blades. As a veteran who served as Infantry in the US Army, Shawn brings a deep understanding of the demands placed on knives in rugged environments. This experience, combined with a passion for big game elk hunting in the mountains of Idaho, drives the creation of knives that are both functional and reliable.                        

On The Brink Steel Works specializes in using high carbon steels like 80crv2 and 5160 Spring steel, alongside premium stainless steels such as AEB-L and CPM S35VN. Each knife is meticulously hand-crafted in Idaho to meet the highest standards, ensuring it can withstand the toughest conditions.                                                   

At On The Brink Steel Works, we believe in the power of craftsmanship, and every piece we produce is a testament to our dedication to quality and our passion for knife-making. Proudly Idaho-made, these knives reflect Shawn’s commitment to quality and craftsmanship, making them the ideal choice for hunters, outdoorsmen, and knife enthusiasts alike.
