Jesse Jarosz grew up in the country on acreage in Nebraska. As a kid he did a lot of hunting, fishing, trapping and other outdoor activities and since then has always enjoyed the outdoors. Into his Teen years, Jesse worked for his father over the summers doing woodworking and construction. Working with his hands was something he grew to enjoy thoroughly, just as generations of his family before him. Having access to the his Dad's tools, he was always building or working on something in his free time and so it was just a matter of time before he would make a knife. Jesse has loved knives since he was a child, but it wasn't until he started getting into more custom and high end knives that he decided to get into making his own.
