I was born and raised in northern Minnesota and recently moved to the big city of Minneapolis.  With a Bachelor’s of Science in Design, I have been an Industrial Designer, CNC Machinist, Manufacturing Engineer for nearly 20 years. I have always had a knife; first was a Swiss Army Knife given to me when I was young.  Despite cutting myself immediately, I was hooked. Since then, I can’t remember a time where I did not have a pocket knife.  Established officially June of 2021...Qvist Bladeworks LLC was born! Now I want to design and make more EDC items, custom knives, production runs, and more to come...this is why Jacob Lundquist Design was created.  Design Collaborations really open up the EDC word, I can be more free to experiment and design more than just knives.
