Justin works out of Marquand, Missouri. His customer base is primarily hunters, and his best-known models are the Nomad, Remnant, and Osprey. He does not just recommend GripX to customers, both of his personal hunting knives use it as well.
“Being able to grip your knife during the process of skinning game isn’t just a nice feature it’s necessary.”
Justin follows the GripX finishing card closely: sand to 400, then glass bead blast. Customers keep coming back for the combination of functional grip, unique look, and colors that are easy to find in the field.
What he wants H+S to be known for is reliability. As he put it,
“It would crush my soul to think about my work living its life in a drawer when they were handmade for hardwork.”

It's a pleasure featuring such a young & rapidly successful Maker such as Justin. See more of his work at hsknives.com.
