Welcome to Draven Industries...Knives, Tools, and Gear for the Industrial Warrior. I'm Eric Draven. I wanna make one thing very clear initially, I do not consider myself just a knifemaker...although that is my job. I consider myself a Weaponsmith, but I also work as a Gear manufacturer and Designer, and I'm in the middle of starting a Clothing company as well. Meaning that I dont JUST concentrate my energy solely on knives or blades. I think just doing one part of it is a massive waste of time. I feel that there are numerous facets of my creativity that have yet to be explored....and I plan on diving headlong into each one. I look to many areas,time periods,genres and geographical locales to draw inspiration from...then I let my mind run wild!! :) I never limit myself in my art because to limit an artist is to kill his creativity.
