He started by building a forge in his backyard and then began crafting blades with a hammer and anvil. At that moment, Toor Knives was born, founded on the basic principle of manufacturing hard use blades in the USA, at an affordable price. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eConnor’s initial inspiration was fueled by a growing frustration of seeing teammates in the Marine Corps having to rely on mass-produced knives that were unfit for mission-specific tasks. So, he began tinkering with blades and crafting designs to improve store-bought and military-issued tactical knives. Knowing this would only take him so far, Connor decided to start developing blade designs that would meet all the demands of his job in the Marine Corps. He dug deep into his own experiences, pooled wisdom from his teammates, as well as his Army Ranger brother and developed a list of everything they felt a tactical knife needed to be. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAdmittedly, the first few blades were far from pretty but eventually, a family of quality knives were created to fit the needs of operators and sportsmen\/women from around the world. Like every business, we’ve certainly had our share of ups and downs since our humble beginnings, but we now have over 30 incredibly talented craftsmen and women, engineers, machinists and bladesmiths under the Toor Knives roof, here in Connor’s hometown of San Diego, CA.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2022-05-11T10:27:22-05:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Brands\/Toor Knives"}],"published_scope":"global","image":{"created_at":"2023-06-14T09:10:16-05:00","alt":null,"width":1920,"height":1080,"src":"\/\/www.knifejoy.com\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/KJ_-_banner_-_brand_-_toor_-_1.jpg?v=1686751817"}}]
Following the exact profile of its predecessor, the Merchant 2.0 has been updated with slimmer handles for less weight, domed hardware, and a deep carry pocket clip. This blade was originally designed as the the ultimate everyday carry pocket workhorse. This version of the Merchant folder has a Tanto blade shape, which provides razor sharp straight edges, and an extremely strong tip. Every Merchant T is made entirely here at Toor Knives, in San Diego, CA.
With an extra-high bevel grind that provides plenty of sharpening life, this frame lock folding knife uses premium 6al-4v titanium, precision-machined handle scales with a CPM S35VN blade. We custom-make every screw and back spacer in our manufacturing facility, also using 6al-4v titanium. The blade rides on phosphor bronze washers, giving it a smooth, controlled folding action, and our signature deep carry titanium pocket clips allow the knife to sit lower in the pocket for extra comfort when carrying.
The Merchant 2.0 T comes in a Spanish Moss KG Gunkote handle with Stone blade, or a Stone handle with Black Oxide blade.
**Please note that this deep carry pocket clip will not fit previous versions of the Merchant.**
