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.

Stretch Goals and Snarf Polls!
5 months ago – Sun, Nov 09, 2025 at 06:27:18 PM

Hey everyone - it's been just over a week since we launched Snarf and we're so excited about the response Snarf has gotten! Things have been moving so fast it's been hard to keep up, but we're so thankful for all the comments and feedback we've already gotten. We've been hard at work crunching the numbers to see what we can offer for stretch goals, and here's what we've been able to come up with:

$47,500 - Anodized Titanium and Timascus Accents
If we hit $47,500, we'll be able to offer accent kits for Snarf. These would be for sale as add-ons and we could offer satin and stonewashed finishes for blue, purple, rust, and teal accents. We can also offer timascus accents. We've mocked these up so you can see what they'd look like:



$50,000 - New Snarf Colorway #1
$53,500 - New Snarf Colorway #2

$57,000 - New Snarf Colorway #3
These we'll need your help on! We've mocked up ten new colorways and want you to vote to help us figure out which ones we offer first! You can see three polls here: Snarf Polls

We weren't able to do ranked choice on the polls, so you'll need to fill out three separate polls telling us your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice. Voting ends Monday at midnight, so get your vote in ASAP!

We're so thankful for all the support you fine folks have given us! Let us know if you have any questions or other ideas to help us get the word out about Snarf!

SNARF HO!!!
6 months ago – Sun, Nov 02, 2025 at 10:38:56 AM

Holeeee cow!!! We've smashed our initial goal and things have been moving so fast I've not even had time to consider how amazing things are going! As I'm furiously writing this email so I can help Melody and the kids with Sunday afternoon house cleaning (I've got 15 minutes before we start so it's gotta be quick), I just saw Snarf crossed the $25K mark, triple our initial goal!

I'll be sending an update soon with some stretch goal info, but for now, I just want to say how much we deeply appreciate the support. I stepped out in faith at the end of September and put in my two-week's notice with my full-time job so that starting mid-October I could be full-time with AKT...but I gotta tell ya I was doing a decent amount of sweating over that step of "faith!" 🤘😅

I say all that to say that the support for Snarf does more than help us launch an amazing new knife, it helps support us as we work to navigate what being full-time with AKT will look like. So years from now when we're still in the knife game making stuff...NEW. EVERY DAY. (that's our tagline that doesn't get used enough, I'll have to take that up with my rambling marketing guy, which is also me) just know that we're able to do what we do in the future because of what you've done this weekend.

There's more to come on this project, but for now, did you see the feature that Melissa Backwoods did on Snarf? If not, check it out!

Hey, just thought of this, but while I'm rambling, if you came here because of Melissa, respond to this post and let me know. We'll work out something awesome for Melissa based on the number of folks that tell us they came because of her. I don't know what because I'm making this up as I go (now down to 5 minutes before cleaning begins) 🤘😅
 

Watch


Early bird ends today, so if you know of someone who needs Snarf, pick up one for them, or let them know to jump in while they can save $10!And even though Halloween just passed, at the Reed house we stay in the spooky spirit, so we're still entering everyone who preorders Snarf this weekend to win 1 of 5 Spooky Truffles brought to you by Way of Knife!Anywho, thanks so much for bringing Snarf to life!!! One minute to go, so I'm pressing send!
