As a military veteran and long time Houston cop, Brian Hoffner knew that a knife was needed that officers could use to pry doors, “If you can’t get in, go home”. As a national instructor, to combat terrorists and active shooters, he wanted a knife that could do it all when the going got tuff, so he created the BEAST!  So pry the door, break and rake the glass, or chop through the wall to get in or get your family out. In the wilderness there is no more powerful a survival tool to chop, baton, entrench, build, and destroy.Brian designed this 3/8″ thick, full tang materpiece as the perfect special purpose fixed blade for police, SWAT, military professionals, and citizens alike to do what other knives could not, AND be warranted for it. All Hoffner Knives come with a lifetime warranty, but the BEAST is also warranted as a pry bar! That’s right, we want you to pry with it!

An incredibly strong and powerful pry bar with an edge, the BEAST is the perfect tool for the camper, survivalist, hunter, cop, SWAT operator, and Special Forces Member. Whether in the sands of Afghanistan on the kit of the American Warrior, on the belt of a first responder,or in the wilderness on the belt of the American Hunter, the BEAST can be counted on to get the job done! It is American power at its best!

The Beast is an indestructible carry blade that will cut, penetrate, pry, hammer, chop, break, rake, smash, slash, crash, and trash all in its path! This knife is truly “the Beast”! – Brian Hoffner
