The Daniels family have been involved in knives for five generations, from trading, selling, manufacturing, and now distribution.
This new chapter has begun for Ryan and Courtney Daniels. "Daniels Family Knife Brands" is offering the exiting new Excelsior Knife Company line of knives directly crafted by the knife makers that also design them. They also are continuing the very popular Tuna Valley Cutlery Co. knife brand, marketed towards the contemporary collector.
Thanks to everyone for all their support over the years, and we hope to talk with you in person at one of the many knife shows we attend throughout the year! We have many projects on the horizon, and hope you check here often to see what is coming next.

We are excited to offer a new set of knives under our Tuna Valley Cutlery brand. Sticking with the popular Mountain Cougar non-locking swingguard pattern, these knives feature buffalo, sheep, and ram horn handle types. Only 15 of each were made, and they should be available with dealers soon. These knives feature 154CM steel clip blades and springs, and measure 4 1/2 inch closed. Be sure to contact a dealer soon if you would like to acquire one.
