The venture of Clyde Challenor Customs (CCC) was born in 2014 when Clyde Challenor started making homemade knives in Durban, South Africa. The CCC brand was officially created on October 12, 2014 qhwn Clyde joined forces with Francois Nell, a fellow knife enthusiast and “artgineer” based in Cape Town. Francois is responsible for all design work (knives, marketing material, and their site).

All involved are doing it part-time, driven by their passion for knives. For them it’s not about making money from the making and selling of knives, but about the joy of creating the best knives possible.

The first priority for CCC is excellence in engineering. Every knife we make has to be functionally perfect. Everything CCC makes has to work well for its intended purpose and not be items of adoration not able to handle proper use.
