A Brief History of Jantz Supply
Jantz was founded in 1966 by Ken and Venice Jantz as Jantz Gun Service. Ken Jantz was passionate about gunsmithing and extended that love to selling gunsmithing tools at shows. Over the years, Ken and Venice developed a loyal customer base from the craftsmen they met at these shows, including knifemakers. As Ken and Venice learned more about the craftsmanship of hand-making knives, they became inspired to add knifemaking supplies to their business. Their goal was to make knifemaking accessible to all and provide materials for beginners and experienced craftsmen alike.
Now, over 50 years later, Jantz is the leading provider of knifemaking supplies around the world. Ken and Venice’s children run the daily operations and retain the core values and principles of a small, family-run business with an emphasis on customer service and support.
