Joe Pardue

Joe's interest in knives started in the mid 70's when he began apprenticing for his dad (Mel Pardue) in his shop, "I made my first knife when I was 14 years old under the watchful eye of my dad."

He enjoys making knives and experimenting with all kinds of knives, but he mentioned that that liner locks and autos are his favorite, "because I find them more of a challenge to make."

All of Joes knives are hand made by him, in his shop, using the best top grade materials available. The use of original design and time honored workmanship continue the lineage of superior Pardue Knives. I hope you enjoy our beautiful selection.
