About Us
Purveyors of USA crafted gentlemen's pointy sharp things and timely tools
James O’Leary and Gino Niccoli founded Patriot Blade and Dial to nurture Patriotism by seeking out small US companies who produce gentlemens edc items and accessories. Products designed, assembled and even entirely manufactured in the US, using as much source material from the US as they can find.
We are not altruistic in thinking everything we buy for ourselves, in our own homes and families will only be US made. But the economic war of domestic production is real and…we are losing, badly. So while we are like everybody else who finds their grocery cart and Walmart cart filled mostly with China, we wanted to do something, even a small thing, to swing the tide.
We choose gentelemns edc items- every day carry things. Knives, watches, accessories. We hope you might choose a few things in your life that you might seek intentionally to be US made, maybe even made by small to midsize family companies. If some of those things are things we carry and you can support us to grow too, great. If not, we support you and your choices for US products regardless.
Together, even if separately, we can slowly swing the tide of domestic economics and nurture the strength of Patriotism once again in the US. This isn’t politics. It’s simply fostering the love for our great country, supporting it to grow strong again- regardless of your political position. Actually, it supports one of our countries great attributes- defending your right to think, feel and do however you please, even if we completely disagree politically.
