A New Chapter for an Emerging American Knife Maker

 

The Squire V2 from Severed Metal Works represents a clear step forward in Dean’s journey as an American knife maker. Built in Northern Alabama, this compact fixed blade measures roughly 7.5 inches overall and carries the same rugged, pocket sized utility that made the original Squire so compelling, but with meaningful refinements throughout.

Dean is still early in his career as a bladesmith, with fewer than one hundred knives made to date, and the Squire V2 reflects his commitment to improving with every batch. These knives are produced in small numbers, individually serialized, and intentionally personal, each one marking progress in skill, consistency, and execution.


What’s New in Version 2

The V2 Squire introduces several important upgrades over the original run:

  • 8670 high carbon steel, chosen for toughness, stability, and excellent heat treat response
  • In house scientific heat treatment, allowing tighter control over hardness and performance
  • Improved sharpening process, resulting in more consistent edges and better cutting performance
  • Serial numbers restarted from 1, marking a clean reset and a new phase in production

These changes reflect Dean’s focus on refinement, repeatability, and learning through disciplined process.

 

Built for Adventure, Finished by Hand

Unlike traditional hand forging, the Squire V2 is produced using a stock removal process, allowing Dean to focus on precision grinding, heat treatment, and finishing. Each blade is shaped, heat treated, ground, sharpened, and finished by hand in his small Alabama workshop.

Handles and finishes vary by serial number, giving every knife its own personality while maintaining the same core design and performance goals.

 

Crafted in Northern Alabama

Every Squire V2 is made start to finish in Dean’s shop using simple tools, controlled processes, and a growing understanding of what makes a good working knife. This is honest American craftsmanship from a maker who is actively honing his craft and building toward a long term future in knifemaking.

 

Blacksmith for Life

Every Severed Metal Works knife includes Lifetime Blacksmith Benefits, covering free repairs and lifetime sharpening for the life of the knife. Customers are only responsible for shipping to and from the shop.

The liner of the shirt can be unsightly with the neck worn open
Color: Black-polka Dots, Size: XX-Large
Be warned, if you get black, the shirt may actually be white inside.  I ordered the black with white poka dots.  The shirt was nice enough an would have looked okay completely buttoned to the top, however, if you wear the neck open like the model shows in the photos, the shirt is not like that.  The shirt has an unsightly white liner which totally shows if you wear the neck unbuttoned at all.
