CE980 RADISSON
OVERVIEW
Tough - Functional - Elegant, your CANADA Enduring - CE980 RADISSON is fundamentally the knife that you should carry in your pocket, everywhere, at all times. Handmade in Canada and holding a revolutionary locking system, there is nothing to compare it to. Your CANADA Enduring - CE980 RADISSON pocket knife is so unique, no other knife operate or look quite like it. Its unique look comes from the innovative mechanisms it carries. Those inventions dictate the final result.
The quality of the material and the simplicity of the design are what makes your CANADA Enduring knife solid and reliable.
Your CE knife is the result of countless crafting hours on our family ranch located on the Cowboy Trail between the beautiful villages of Pincher Creek and Waterton, Alberta Canada. It can take up to 2 weeks from start to finish for a single knife to be crafted. If you would like to purchase one of these exclusive knives in person, you can find them at the Tamarack Outdoors outlet in Waterton.
All components of your knife (from the blade, handle, pins, rivets to the pocket clip) are individually made, shaped, and/or adjusted to fit your unique CE knife.
For durability, the blade is hand-crafted from the best knife grade stainless steel.
All CANADA Enduring knife handles are made of hard Chokecherry or Saskatoon wood (Depending on resource availability). Both woods carefully harvested, by hand in the wild, at the foot of the Canadian Rocky Mountains.
The first part of the model name CE980 comes from the blade length 98.0mm / 4". The second part of the model name RADISSON is in honour of Pierre-Esprit Radisson1636-1710. Explorer, fur trader and founder of the Hudson Bay Company.
Creating your CANADA Enduring knife, we were inspired by true heroes of our Canadian history. Professional voyagers, translators, trappers, hunters, Coureur de bois, fur traders... All Indigenous, Metis, Canadiens, and settlers’ extraordinary beings. True legends of this unforgivably hard, but incredibly beautiful land. Therefore, the traditional look of your knife. It feels like you traded furs for it, at Fort Kaministiquia, in the 1700. A lasting contemporary message... from another time.
Many years from now, when the time comes, we are hoping you will pass down this amazing knife to your descendants... because this is just how tough we made it
