OUTDOOR DIVISION
Emerson knives have proven themselves time and time again in the most hostile environments on this planet. They have earned a reputation for ruggedness, dependability and functionality that is unsurpassed in the cutlery industry.
From the official knives used by NASA and the Space Station Program to the knives used by the Navy SEALs, Emerson knives stand alone in a field filled with cheaply made foreign imports, designed by draftsmen and engineers who haven't stepped foot in the wilderness in 10 years…if ever.
Every Emerson knife is the result of years of practical experience in knife design, knife craft, and knife usage. This company, headed by the most respected and recognized knife maker on Earth, Ernest R. Emerson, is leading the entire knife industry into the 21st century. Look at any catalog or in any knife store and you will see all the variations on Emerson designs that every knife company has in their product line. Unfortunately they are just what they are, imitations of the "real deal", knives.
If you are on a trek through southern Nepal or climbing on an icy rock wall in Patagonia, and suddenly faced with a life or death emergency, do you want to pull out a $79.95 copy of an Emerson made in Taiwan for about $3.78? Of course, the choice will always be yours.
But, if you are a professional or if you have the personal standards demanded by professionals, your choice is easy. You will be reaching for an Emerson.
This company is owned and run by serious, professional individuals. They build the knives, and more importantly, they use the knives. The crew at Emerson Knives is a mix of serious outdoorsmen, watermen and extreme athletes. Along with former military and law enforcement agents we are as serious at play as we are at work. Rest assured that if you are trekking across the desert plain in Namibia or carrying your kayak deep up a hidden river in the jungles of Borneo, not only have Emerson knives been there, but someone from Emerson knives has probably been there too.
The bottom line is this. If we build knives tough enough for NASA, the Navy SEALs, and the U.S. Marines, we know they are tough enough for anyone…anytime…anyplace. The #1 Hard Use Knives In The World.
