Half Face Blades was founded by Andrew Arrabito, whose childhood hunting, camping, and fishing in Northern California shaped his respect for the outdoors and reliable equipment. After high school, Arrabito joined the Navy and went on to serve with the SEAL Teams. His experience in demanding operational environments helped establish the company's guiding principle: a blade must do more than look good; it must perform when it matters. Half Face Blades is veteran-owned and operated, and every knife is made in the USA. The company emphasizes purpose-built design, integrity, and lasting craftsmanship, while a portion of its sales supports charities and foundations honoring those who've served and sacrificed.
