In addition to making the knives and axes for the movie ‘The Last of The Mohicans’ Winkler has a long history of making items for Military Special Operations units and The OGA.



The showroom includes a museum of sorts.

Most knives you buy from Winkler are on an order basis and the wait times can be measured in weeks or months. If you stop by the store they have a few knives available for instant gratification.

One of those followed me home.
