Snarf: The Utility Knife Reinvented for Knife Nuts

Created by Aurora Knife and Tool

Most utility knives look like a tool you'd borrow, not a knife you’d be proud to carry. That's why with Snarf, we reinvented the classic utility knife with the knife nut in mind.

Snarf Shipping Mini Update
2 months ago – Tue, Sep 01, 2026 at 12:36:52 PM

Hey everyone - I just wanted to let y’all know we’ve currently shipped 10% of our 1100 Snarf orders. I had hoped to hit 20% by the end of last week but I got hit with a cold followed by a stomach bug, so that slowed us down a bit. I’m still recovering but the cold became an upper respiratory infection so that’s sapped my energy a good bit. 

All that to say I’m still plugging away as much as I can, and I expect to hit 20% soon. I’ve also heard that Miamibursts and Mystery Snarfs are inbound so we’re expecting them to arrive late this week or early next. 

Thank you all for your patience and understanding while Melody and I navigate these health challenges on the way to getting Snarf out to you.

Snarf Shipping Update
2 months ago – Wed, Aug 26, 2026 at 11:40:54 PM

Hey everyone - just wanted to give an update on how shipping is coming along!

This is our most complex shipping challenge yet - 1100+ orders, 10 colorways, and 2000+ knives to QC, label, and arrange by serial number!

To simplify matters, we decided to do our QC, labeling, and serial assignments in the same way BackerKit arranges shipping labels. That way we wouldn’t have very much time in between the printing and shipping of each label. That’s proving to be a lot more streamlined than our previous procedure of printing all the labels at once.

It also means that once you get the notification that your label has been purchased, you should be able to start tracking it within a day or so.

We estimate that by the end of this week we’ll have shipped out about 20% of our Snarf orders! That should mean we are able to hit pretty close to our goal of delivering everything by mid-September.

We’re still waiting on the accents, Miamiburst, and Mystery Snarfs which I was just told today have been pushed back towards the end of August. But we’ve got plenty to ship in the meantime, so we’ll focus on that while waiting for the others to arrive.

Thanks everyone for your concerns and prayers for Melody. She’s definitely having a rough go at it right now health-wise, but the kids and I are trying to be there for her and encourage her. She’s one tough cookie so I know she’ll get past this, but I do hate to see her unable to do so many of the things she enjoys (which strangely includes QC and shipping!🤣)

Anywho, thank you all so much for your support and patience as we wrap up Snarf! You’re the best!

Snarf Starts Shipping + Live w/New Prototype Tonight @ 7:30 CST!
3 months ago – Sun, Aug 16, 2026 at 11:59:56 AM

Hey everyone! I’m excited to announce that we will start shipping Snarfs tomorrow!

With over 1,100 orders, this is our biggest order to date, so we aren’t sure exactly how long it will take to ship everyone’s order. We’re starting with the items we have while we wait on Miamiburst, Mystery Snarf, and anodized accents. We’ll also hold Bluewashed and Purplewashed orders for a couple of days in case those backers want to switch.

I’m also hosting a live tonight at 7:30 CST on our YouTube channel to share the first sneak peek at our newest preorder, “Funkenstein!” I’m so stoked to share it and get feedback from our current backers.
Thank you for helping bring Snarf to life. We’re so excited to get it into your hands!

Only two more days to change your address/order!
3 months ago – Sat, Aug 15, 2026 at 12:56:06 PM

Hey everyone - I've initiated the lock addresses function so if you need to change your shipping address before we ship you can follow the link it just sent you via email. Make sure to do that soon, because we'll start printing shipping labels soon.

Also, if you'd like to change or add anything to your order, please shoot an email to [email protected] and they can help you make those changes.

Thanks to everyone who caught the typo on the earlier message regarding the colorways. I had accidentally labeled the purple "Moonburst" variant "Miamiburst." The images below show that corrected. We're still waiting on Miamiburst, so that's why the colorway is currently blurred. 

The knives that look the most different from what we ordered are the bluewashed and purplewashed titanium variants. We ordered a more muted, darker tone of each knife but we received a lighter shade of both. They both look great, in fact some folks that didn't order a color may prefer those, but It's just not what was advertised. 

I'll be sending out an email to all our backers that bought the bluewashed and purplewashed to make sure they notice the change and are able to get in touch with [email protected] if they want to make a change. And if you didn't order a bluewashed or purplewashed Snarf but want one now, you can make that change by reaching out to [email protected] as well.

Thanks again for all the support and let us know if you need to change your order or address ASAP!

Final Colorways+One New Snarf!
3 months ago – Thu, Aug 13, 2026 at 12:47:12 PM

ey everyone - I wanted to show off the way each colorway came out in case folks wanted to change up their orders. I've also changed the photos on the website (www.getsnarfed.com) to match the production colors. 

Plus, I couldn't resist sneaking in a version of Snarf that matches the milling on Truffles and HiveMind, so if you have either of those knives and want to be matchy-matchy you can either swap or add Smoove Satin Ti to your order! Oh, and no, Smoove Satin Ti is NOT the Mystery Snarf! 🤘🤣

Let me know if you have any questions!
