Canadian knifemaker Brian Tighe is a true Renaissance Man, with an array
of professional skills including tool and die making, metallurgy,
engraving and photography. In his St. Catharines, Ontario, workshop, he
produces a wide array of custom folders, all with those signature
touches that immediately make them stand out as Brian Tighe knives.
At first glance, the knife seems like a design exercise until you grasp
it and understand that the concave cut scales are craftily shaped to
enhance grip, aggressive with contours in just the right places. Brian’s
blade design is unique too, with its asymmetrical spine facets,
high-hollow grind and deep belly with recurve.
Patented* OutBurst™ assisted opening mechanism, which instantly springs
the blade fully open after you have opened the blade 30 degrees.
Dual ramped thumb studs allow the My Tighe to be quickly opened with
either hand.
Feature a removable black Teflon-plated pocket/gear clip.
It’s hard to ignore any Brian Tighe design, especially these highly
personal work knives. Carry one and you will certainly start a
conversation among knife fanciers everywhere. |
