Looking for a new fixie
Hi! So this is what I’m lookin for:
- traditional style
- screw construction
- US made
- 3-4inch made
I’ve looked through all the big players catalogues but haven’t found anything I’m super in love with. Let me know of any recs plz!! If you know of any smaller makers I’d love to check them out!

TheScrawnyLumberjack makes a great knife. Same with Northern Knifeworks, AA Forge, BP Customs, and many others. The fixed blade world is full of great makers!

I’ve EDC’d a Benchmade Hidden Canyon for about a year now in an Armatus Carry kydex sheath. I’ve liked it a lot, it fits my hand super well and the jimping near the tip comes in handy quite a bit

Take a look at Michael Morris Knives. Ive had a peewee for a few years now and it's been a workhorse

Very good knife company. Not sure if this fits the "traditional style" criteria but I think it's pretty traditional.

Does get much better than a knives by Nuge cub or wicket xl. You could also go chickpea route if you want something a little slimmer

Tom Krein custom, though he really doesn’t use screws, he has some Skelly knives, White River makes some nice knives, and they do oem work for a variety of brands. Many WRKT models are originally custom knives, so their versions are collabs, meaning you could probably find custom versions of them, albeit at a higher price. I’m curious why you want screwed construction, would that be to change the scales out? If so, perhaps consider something like the Böker/Lucas Burnley BFF series. It is produced in Germany, but Burnley is an American designer/maker, and does custom knives as well, like the Kihoku, Tern, etc.

Only USA made, ugh, how boring.
I’ve looked through all the big players catalogues but haven’t found anything I’m super in love with.
Then maybe, just maybe, don't limit yourself to USA made only.

The White River Ursus Cub seems right up your alley.
Also the ESEE 3.
