Auxiliary Manufacturing is the work of me, Michael Jarvis. After 15 years of restaurant work (everything from dishwasher to executive chef), I started making various pocket tools (Pry bars!) as a hobby, and making things slowly grew on me until I eventually made the transition to knives. I left my last restaurant position as general manager, to help a sick family member. In that time my hobby had become a job and with the help of my wife, got my shop set up in Febuary 2016 and never looked back. Now I'm a self taught, full time blade smith honing my craft more with each blade.
Karl JR:
I designed the Karl in conjunction with a Chicago police officer to accommodate a lack of an ideal duty knife. Built with tactical advantage in mind, the Karl features stainless steel and textured composite handle for long term durability. Winner of the best custom tactical knife at blade show west 2022…. This is its little brother! Designed with carry in mind. It’s a small package that packs a BIG punch! Specifications:
