8 Reasons Why Pendleton 1790 Knife & Tool Company is Different
1) Emphasis on High-Quality, Precision, Durability, Value, and Reliability VS flash, no substance, and mediocre performance
– We want to exceed your expectations. Period.
2) Emphasis on you, the customer VS a transaction, price-point, and selling volume products for the sake of volume
– We want long-term relationships. Quality and world-class customer service is how to make that happen. Each of our knives go through an extensive hand-crafted process to prep the parts to our tolerances and assemble with our multi-step precision quality control process.
3) A focus on principle/purpose-centered product building for you VS profit motivated, conventional wisdom, and cheap parts
– Customer value and a product that just flat-out works is our emphasis.
4) We encourage customer feedback. Our products are designed to make your daily life better
– Feel free to let us know your thoughts and needs for future product development.
5) Emphasis on simple choices for all our customers. No time wasters VS too many models not done very well
– We find too many choices creates chaos and indecision. A well thought out product line with quality materials makes production, decisions for retailers, and customer’s choices easier.
6) Our Covenant to all customers is to meet and exceed their expectations of a quality knife and tool manufacturer
– We build these knives to be legacy pieces… we want you proud to hand-down your tool to your love ones many years down the road.
7) 1790 Knife is always evolving and improving VS just flash, no substance, and a focus on a short-term trend
– This is the reason we created this brand. We found too many companies in a lot of industries these days are focused on superficial flash to catch your attention instead of quality products that last or services that sell themselves. Please enjoy your premium quality 1790 Knife!
8) Our Unprecedented CY6 lifetime warranty makes perfect sense with this “different” list
– What type of manufacturer would we be if we didn’t stand behind our words and vision? We have your back (CY6). You can count on that!
1790 R.D.Q.
“Proprietary Blade Deployment System…
R eally D amn Q uick”
Friction is the enemy of a smooth action, performance, and great feeling on a folding knife.
We feel your knife should have an amazing “Oh Wow!” feeling when you hold the knife in your hand and flip it open.
The 1790 “THWACK” sound when you knife opens is fast becoming legendary. We can’t tell you how many times we hear “Oh Wow!” when a new customer puts a 1790 in their hand and hears the legendary “THWACK” when they flip open one of our titanium handle models. A warning, the flick and amazing strong sound becomes very addictive. Very, very addictive.
A big reason for this strong sound and feel? Our 1790 R.D.Q. proprietary treatment on the blades, parts, and handles and the materials we use building these legacy knives creates a very slick environment for the blade and parts to operate smoothly.
Traditional knife oil treatments are temporary and can actually attract dirt, dust, and feel poorly and sticky soon after your purchase.
Our proprietary 1790 R.D.Q. treatment to the interior parts reduces friction without the typical oils others use.
Our proprietary 1790 R.D.Q. system helps you open your knife Really Damn Quick and will last the lifetime of your knife, or we will re-treat, repair, or replace it for free!
What is our secret treatment? Sorry, that’s our 1790 Knife secret sauce…. and yes, I can’t tell you the secret or I’d have to…
