Canal Street Canntiler

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.

Be sure and let us know how you like them and post some pictures here if you can.
Well the camel bone one was rusty inside - not NIB as described. So, sent that one back.

I am a canoe fan - but I think I might be more of a Cannitler now! These are real nice knives for the sub $100 range!

I'm not much on the Canoe pattern so I don't understand why I'm drawn to these Cannitlers. Those are some very attractive knives. Thanks for showing them.

Thanks!

I bought the first one for EDC but too pretty and the number was fairly low. Found a used one for $35 and got it today. It will be in my rotation along with a Case canoe or two. Size wise, nearly identical to canoes. You just get an extra blade!

Beautiful knives. Like Eric said, that blue bone is a hard one to locate.

You've got the start of one mighty nice collection there. ::tu::
