ABOUT US
Veteran Owned.
Kansas Born.
Freedom Forged
Free State Machining was founded by a proud United States Marine Corps veteran, formerly serving as an 0311 Infantryman with 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marines. With years of experience in firearms, firearms repair, and precision craftsmanship, our mission is simple: build custom tactical knives and outdoor tools that are tough, reliable, and ready for the fight or the field.
After completing his service, our founder returned home to the heartland —
Kansas, a state rich in grit, resilience, and a legacy of standing up for what's right.
OUR PROMISE:
✓ Veteran-Owned & Operated
✓ Proudly Made in Kansas
✓ Built for Hard Use, Built to Last
✓ Backed by Honor, Integrity, and Service
