Too many times, a box arrives at the door, and with great anticipation, you open the box to see your new knife. The moment you hove the knife in hand however, your stomach drops, and it doesn’t feel like it should. This isn’t what you expected. That story is not the Archer.

Tactile cut their teeth on writing instruments made in Texas. Fit, finish, running a business, were all dialed in. Then they brought out a few knives to test the waters. The first two were successful. The third, the Maverick was Knife of the Year material. I don’t remember if it won, but it was in the conversation. Great designer, price point, and huge success. That’s the lead up to the Archer. The company being a success. Their first three knives all being a success, this is the big one! And it does not disappoint. The archer feels great in the hand if you love a knife that’s made to work. Not made bizarrely light through effort best spent on things that matter. The milling is exceptional, Tactile s bread and butter. It flips perfectly. This is a knife you can pass down generations. It’s as tough as a Chris Reeves, with the style of a Shiro. All made in America. Not a pretty boy knife this one is elegance under wraps. You can’t go wrong, and this knife will not let you down on any level.

I collect fine knives manufactured and mid-tech small batch $300 - $3,000 and hold around 250 knives at any time. I buy in multiples so often have extras to sell. Focus on North American and European designers and makers with some having production in Asia.

Penchetta had just what I was looking for and had it in-stock: red rollerball cartridges for my red Kaweco Sport rollerball pen.

very smooth and Pilot quality as expected

Great people and super thankful!

Amazing starter pen and a great daily driver for comfortable writing. I love the EF nib because I write very small and this pen performs very nicely

What a lovely instrument. Simple and tastefully executed. Another great experience from Penchetta!

Top Tier! It sounds like a bell or wind chime and just so unique but still a fantastic flipper!

Love this!! The Serif is one of my favorite go to balisongs!!

My wife loves this candy!!!

Everyone at the store were great! Super helpful! Pen is great

One of my favorite pens of all time. I take it ever here with me.

This is the 2nd Machinewise Serif Ive purchased from Penchetta. It is the perfect balisong, with amazing acoustics and perfect balance. There are a few S tier balisongs, but this is the only one I need.
