Jan 2022 I was diagnosed with Ramsey Hunt. Half my face is paralyzed and it’s made me a little shy of doing videos. It’s a little depressing to see myself on camera, but God is good and he’s taking care of me. I’ve regained about 20% movement in my facial muscles on the left side.
This is a more in depth look at our shop. Landon our machinist is filming and dropping some knowledge here also. He’s an impressive guy. We compliment each other well. He uses his strengths and I use mine.
Enjoy,
2023 will be an awesome year. We’ve spent the last 2-3 months game planning for the future of our business and our customers.
We are loving the fact that we’ve added CPM3V blades to our folders and we are now offering many additional show side options to future elevate the quality and customization of your carry gear.
Regardless if you’re a weekend warrior or a legit team guy, we’ve got you covered.
We will be filming a lot more footage this year to give you all inside peaks at what we do.
If you want full access however and unseen videos, the best option is to head to our website:

And search “legion membership”
There’s 3 options saving you 15-30% on all website orders and each option also gives you an exclusive assigned serial # as well as access to our chat groups and video content not publicly viewable.
If you’re on the fence, ask a Legion member if they’re happy with their experience 🍻
I’d also like to answer a few recent questions:
Contours are done on our HASS or CNC router you can clearly see in the background and it’s one of the easiest parts of the process. It just takes more time, it’s the same machine we use to machine handles for our fixed blades. A USA company Camo Carbon made the inlays we used on the Divo knife prototypes and you can buy their material from Rockin’ Blocks owner Andy Leonard who’s the retailer for Camo Carbon.
Frames are done on our HAAS cnc machine at the start of this video. Bevels are done a few ways. If we leave the machine lines on that usually means we did the whole bevel in house. If they’re smooth like some of the UDTs here we hand ground some of them. Big runs are done by a few different companies we have accounts with in the USA as the bevel machines are expensive and we don’t have any more room in the current shop. We are however building a large shop in Wyoming currently we broke ground on before the weather got too cold. Sharpening is all done in house.
We buy our hardware that we make 3D stp files for (CAD Files) from a small family run shop with a Swiss lathe. Our packaging I purchased from a company in New York who also supplies the zip pouches.
Here’s why I care about keeping our intellectual property under wraps. Lots of our OEM customers know cad and are so close to being able to run machines themselves and I don’t know who has what capabilities or how much money they have. If they figure out every piece they can cut us out. That’s called retaining a competitive advantage.
Because we currently have low overhead expenses, we can offer a competitive price. We only run 3 full time employees, we don’t pay for massive shop space, we are saving our funds to pay for our new & bigger shop cash on land we own and we plan to remain low overhead to keep our own retail pricing as well as matching retailer pricing competitive. I feel we offer a better quality knife at a more competitive price. Our CPM3V blades significantly increase our machining time/costs as well as the finishing time for lapping, tumbling & sharpening. If you know anything about CPM3V it’s by far one of the best carbon super tool steels. CPM3V is made in New York at a foundry called Crucible. It’s extremely tough, has amazing edge retention and even though it’s a carbon super tool steel it has a few stainless properties. It’s my personal favorite steel. We are planning to run some Magnacut blades as well in the future.
Our machinist/engineer and I both quit our day jobs a few years back, this is how we support our families, our vendors, hire others and get product out to retailers. Our extremely low overhead and efficiency allows us to have a great end retail price which we’d like to keep that way.
Sincerely,
Kevin Moore / Owner & Founder
