Who we are
We grew up in rural areas, Hunting, Shooting, Trapping, Fishing, and working with you hands was the baseline. After having used a variety of tools ranging from “Box Cutters to Bullwhips to Brownings” we learned what we liked, what worked well, and what didn’t. First and foremost, we design our gear to be For Us , By Us. Over the years, many would see our custom gear, or stuff we “HotRod’d Up”, and the questions of “Who? What? Where? Why? How? (W5)” quickly followed. At a certain point it became our mission to be able to Provide Great People, with Great Gear they could get off the shelf.
The people involved with Delta 2 Alpha have backgrounds in machining, manufacturing, engineering, textiles, sewing, pattern drafting, trades work, martial arts and combatives, military, and emergency services. Most importantly we are end users of our designs. This means we are committed making products we are proud of and products that don’t suck. We don’t have an interest in fixing what isn’t broken or in putting a new knife out every 6 months just because.
