Half Face Blades was founded by Andrew Arrabito, whose appreciation for dependable tools began during his childhood hunting, camping, and fishing in Northern California. After high school, Arrabito joined the Navy and went on to serve with the SEAL Teams. His overseas deployments and operational experience helped establish the company's central philosophy: a blade must do more than look good; it must perform when people depend on it. As Arrabito puts it, “Every time I sharpened steel under fire or under stars, I asked myself: if this tool failed, what else could I rely on?”
That mindset continues to shape Half Face Blades. Veteran owned and operated, the company makes its knives in the USA and emphasizes purpose, integrity, durability, and practical craftsmanship. Its tools are designed for military professionals, hunters, outdoorsmen, and everyday users who value dependable equipment. The company also gives back, with a portion of sales supporting charities and foundations that honor those who've served and sacrificed.
With American S45VN steel, an Armor Black Cerakote blade, Arctic Storm Fat Carbon scales, a textured grip, and a Kydex sheath, the Half Face Blades Congressman combines distinctive styling with purposeful American craftsmanship.
