About

Cossatot Works

Cossatot Works makes handmade knives and woodworks in small numbers in Young Harris, Georgia. Air Force veteran Ben Robinson co-founded it with Caleb Ledford, a self-taught bladesmith and two-time Forged in Fire runner-up who leads design and forging. The knives pair certified 52100 high-carbon steel with stabilized American black walnut, from the $695 Field Nº 1 to the $995 Table Nº 1 chef's knife.

The name comes from the Cossatot River in western Arkansas, and every piece is made in the USA. Ben started out as Caleb's student in a knife-making class. The two later worked side by side in Ben's shop, and the company grew from that partnership. Field Nº 1 is a drop-point field knife with black G10 liners and two solid brass pins, with a prototype hardness target of 60 to 61 HRC. Table Nº 1 has an 8.25-inch French-style blade on a tapered full tang and a target of 61 to 62 HRC. Shipping is included at no extra charge. The woodworks use American hardwoods. River Nº 1 ($495) is an end-grain cutting board of North American hard maple with black walnut bands and a recessed walnut plinth. Gorge Nº 1 ($795) is a figured maple knife stand with five concealed magnetic positions along a walnut inlay.
