Designing What Deserves To Exist.
At Danner Designs, we believe the things we bring into our lives should be made with intention. Every product begins with an idea, is refined through thoughtful design, and is crafted to become something worth keeping for years to come.
Featured Work
The Huntsman is a hand-finished hunting knife designed for hard use in the field. Its substantial blade and comfortable hardwood handle provide the control and durability needed for demanding work, while maintaining the clean, understated character of a traditional hunting knife.
Crafted from 1084 high-carbon steel and paired with a naturally grained hardwood handle, each Huntsman is shaped, finished, and assembled by hand in the USA.
No two Huntsmen are exactly alike. Variations in the grain of the wood, the finish of the steel, and the details of the handwork give every knife its own character. These natural variations are part of the craftsmanship—and make each one uniquely yours
Built for the hunter. Made for the field. Designed to be carried
The Upland is a hand-finished bird-and-trout style knife designed for the hunter who values a capable tool without unnecessary bulk. Its slender profile and fine point provide the control and precision expected from a traditional field knife, while its full-tang construction makes it a dependable companion in the outdoors.
Crafted from 1084 high-carbon steel and paired with a naturally grained hardwood handle, each Upland is shaped, finished, and assembled by hand in the USA.
No two Uplands are exactly alike. Variations in the grain of the wood, the finish of the steel, and the details of the handwork give every knife its own character. These aren't imperfections—they're part of what makes each piece uniquely yours.
