If you're into knives and haven't heard of Steel Will yet, you should really check out the company's offerings. Steel Will blends American design and Italian manufacturing to produce some very cool fixed-blade and folding knives.

The Steel Will Gekko 1552 mini folding knife.

We had a chance to get our hands on some of its newest products recently at Blade Show, and we got some live video with one of the company's reps. We also have a dual review of two of those knives planned soon… but you'll have to wait to see that.
