Rothman Knives

We hand build our knives here at Rothman Knives of Manlius. We use premium materials for durability and high quality: CPM-154 stainless steel for blade and spring, and the liners are 410 stainless steel and 416 stainless steel for bolsters. So, our knives will not rust or corrode.

Our philosophy is not so much to build knives as to engineer a family heirloom-quality knife that you will be able to pass on to your kids or grandkids.

Our shop is fully fitted with precision equipment for cutting, heat-treating, sharpening and polishing the final product to meet your standards-- and ours!

My Gentleman's Trapper was reviewed favorably in a Blade Magazine SPEC SHEET aricle by MSG Kim Breed 5th Special Forces (Retired) in the January 2023 Issue.

Says MSG: " I was impressed with the performance of the blade considering how thin it is. Excellent workmanship!"

Thank you for the kind words, sir!
