Louis Krudo is an interesting guy, he is a martial artist that loves sci-fi, comic books and cigars.
When you watch Louis demonstrate his knives at trade shows like SHOT and BLADE you will see that he has a trued passion for what he does. According to Louis his fist design, the SNAG made its industry debut back in 2010 at BLADE Show, twelve years later he has released quote a diverse portfolio of products from knives, to pens to men’s rings and other jewelry.
