In 1977, Robert Ferraro was requested to develop a new line of medium and popular priced folding type and new fixed blade knives. This development took nearly three years from the time the designs were first drawn.

The wait was well worthwhile, for in 1980 Smith & Wesson announced its new general purpose-folding knife called the Maverick. This knife was available in both a Clip and Drop point versions. These were discontinued in 1995.
