What Our Customers Say
"Dear Colonial:
A dear friend recently gave me a knife he had had since a little boy. It’s a small two-blade, ivory colored knife with the word "Keep Em Flying" imprinted. I was hoping you might tell me the age and possibly its history.
Many thanks and thanks for making the wonderful knives for the Boy Scouts and the U.S. Army Paratroopers. I was both.
Best wishes,"

"I purchased a Colonial product (marlin spike) Dec. 2010 and was so pleased with it I ordered another one in Feb. 2011."

"High quality products,- I’ve used the tat cutter numerous times to cut off the clothes of patients in my ER. Works great, faster and smaller than scissors."

"I am a full time firefighter and use knives multiple times daily. After researching your US made products, I plan to purchase one (or more) of your knives in the very near future. I was wondering if the glass breaker on the 505 Rescue Hook is available on the 550 Ranger. From the pictures that I have seen, they appear to be the same handle configuration. Because I use my knives for multiple purposes, I would love to add the convenience of a glass breaker to the versatility of the 550 Ranger (serrated if possible). If you were to add an oxygen wrench cutout to the handle, it would turn the 550 into a nearly perfect First Responder knife. Thanks for making such great products. I would love to hear your thoughts.
Sincerely,"
David W - Rochester, MN

"I received one of your M-724 rescue knives (black) for my birthday in October, I love the knife and use at work all the time."
Paul Amonett - Mogadore, Ohio
"When I first went off to college, my father dug around in his boxes, eventually producing a few pocket knives that he’d gotten form his father. He picked through them, looking for one in good condition. The one he eventually gave to me was a two blade Colonial ad knife that his father had owned, marked with Farms Assn.. I kept the knife with my treasured things, but didn’t dare use it for fear of damaging it. A few years later, I found an identical knife at a local store. Excited, I bought it and sharpened it. I own two Colonial knives that I know have proven themselves and, I hope, will continue to do so for decades to come."

"Very Impressed! I received my "Tuff Cop" about two and one half months ago. I have used it daily, from slicing apples to cutting corrugated boxes and electrical wire. Outstanding! Attached is my order for one model 550 and one model 580
Thanks for ´ol U.S. workmanship."
