Friction Forging®: A Game-Changer

Friction Forged® Technology: The Pinnacle I proudly features the groundbreaking Friction Forged® Technology Steel, elevating its cutting prowess to unparalleled levels of sharpness and durability.. The Friction Forging® process results in steel grain structures 10x finer than traditional knife manufacturing methods, thereby creating a harder, thinner, tougher razor sharp edge. The DiamondBlade knives will outperform any other knife by 10 times – or better – guaranteed. Read More
Holds a shaving edge 10X longer: This revolutionary forging process creates a finer grain structure, leading to a blade that stays sharp 10 times longer, guaranteed.
Non-Brittle: The finer grain structure also makes the blade more resistant to chipping and breaking even at an unprecedented 65-69 Rc hardness.
Corrosion-Resistant: The forged zone is resistant to corrosion and rust, ensuring your knife stays reliable for years to come.
Easy to Sharpen: Because the blade is ground to a 9 degree (18 degree included) angle, there is less material to remove when sharpening is eventually needed.

Unmatched Quality

American-Made Toughness: Every DiamondBlade Knife is made in the USA with American materials, backed by a lifetime warranty.
CATRA-Tested Sharpness: Each blade undergoes rigorous testing on a CATRA (Cutlery Allied Trade Research Association) knife sharpness machine to ensure it meets the highest sharpness standards.
D2 Tool Steel: This high-quality steel forms the foundation for the patented Friction Forging® process, resulting in an ultra-hard edge (65-69 Rc) with an 18-degree (included) sharpening angle.
Full Tang Construction: Built for strength and reliability, fixed blade DiamondBlade knives feature a full tang construction, providing the necessary backbone for consistent performance in the field.

Handle Materials

Exquisite Materials; Choose from multiple handle materials adorned with mosaic pins, ensuring a stunning and unique aesthetic.

G-10: Tough as nails material that is a combination of fiberglass fabric and epoxy resin. A synthetic handle that is made to be durable while providing a good non-slip grip that is easy to clean.
Wood: If you are looking to elevate the look of a DiamondBlade knife, our stabilized wood handles are an excellent choice as they are complimented with mosaic pins that create a classic, very high-end look. They are made with heirloom quality materials and craftsmanship that are a joy to use in the field.
Stag: The beautiful genuine elk antler handle is a showpiece that sets you apart as a discriminating outdoorsman. Like the wood handles, it is stabilized and finished in a high gloss, sporting beautiful mosaic pins. Please note that international shipping is not permitted.

Lifetime Warranty

Free Lifetime Sharpening: We stand behind our knives! Even a DiamondBlade Knife will eventually need to be sharpened. Simply send your knife to our Texas headquarters, and we’ll professionally resharpen it for free. Learn More
Corrosion Resurfacing and Refurbishment: If a complete refurbishment service is needed, our technicians will refurbish your knife to keep it looking and performing like new.
If you experience an issue with your knife, simply contact us, and ship to our Texas Headquarters and we will completely repair, or replace your knife. Learn More

Care

Maintain the Edge: A few strokes on a ceramic rod on either side will keep your DiamondBlade razor-sharp.
Cleaning: Wash with soap and water after use, then follow up with WD-40 or another solvent to clean the blade’s micro grain structure. Wipe dry to prevent rust. This product is not dishwasher safe.

Sheath

Secure and Convenient: Each Pinnacle I Knife comes with an American made leather sheath with a Kydex insert, featuring a secure snap closure and belt loop for easy carrying. The Kydex Liner ensures optimal protection and secure retention, preventing any damage to the knife while offering easy access during critical moments.

BRIAN – December 18, 2022

I recently shot a giant 181 inch buck in Alberta that weighed well over 320 lbs. He was a old buck with thick hide. I used the Pinnacle to skin out this deer so I could take his cape and horns back home to put on the wall. Knife kept its edge and has a great feel in your hand. I have used buck knives for ever but have made the switch to Diamond Blade and not looked back. Brian S. – Chronicles TV
