Welcome to the Hell Gap LTD.
You’ve never seen anything like this before, because nothing like this has ever existed before. We partnered with artist, nomad and skateboarder Lucas Beaufort to create a super-limited edition of our new Hell Gap fixed blade knife. This release is limited to only twenty pieces, and no two pieces are the same. Once they are gone, they are gone forever.
About Lucas Beaufort.
Lucas Beaufort is an artist who has come up through the world of skateboarding. His simple linear style with occasional bursts of color has become recognizable throughout the urban cultural landscape. He’s collaborated with companies across multiple industries and has found a second home in the Portland creative scene. When he’s not painting he’s skateboarding or relaxing in Cannes with his wife Garance.
Working with Minneapolis-based knife-maker and materials expert Adam Brackney (@WKRMN) we created an innovative way to translate the colorful artwork of Lucas into the handles of the Hell Gap. We pushed resin technology to the limits and molded 3-dimensional blocks of the artwork, and then cut the handles out. This means that the color goes all the way through the material, and it ensures that no two can ever be the same.
The Hell Gap LTD is 100% made in the U.S.A. with a Crucible s35vn stainless steel blade for great edge retention and corrosion resistance. The scales are hand- poured resin for great grip and durability. The Hell Gap LTD comes complete with a signed and numbered print of Lucas’s original artwork, a paracord lanyard, a Kydex sheath for blade protection, and a Cordura® nylon outer sheath for packing and storage.
The Hell Gap retails for $395 only via www.thejamesbrand.com.

About The James Brand
The James Brand was created in Portland, Oregon, in 2012 by a group of designers and adventurers who were looking to make something better. Based on the adage that if you can’t find what you want, you might have to make it yourself, we decided to put pen to paper and design something new: knives made with premium materials, a minimalist design aesthetic and clear attention to the details. We make modern knives and tools that are a better reflection of our values and lives. Modern, minimal everyday carry is what The James Brand is all about.
