This week, I'm in Montana with Thomas Rucker and Payden Armstrong, the special forces veterans and expert bladesmiths behind Rucker Knives. Thomas served in Vietnam, becoming a Green Beret in 1967, only five years after the program's inception. He's been making knives for over 50 years, and together with his wife, has twice won the International Knife of the Year award. Payden served as a Navy SEAL in North Africa and Afghanistan. With firsthand experience in combat and survival situations, he understands the importance of a reliable and functional knife. The expertise and craftsmanship that these men pour into their knives can only come from years of hunting and combat experience.
