Koi Knives was founded by Ramon & Shannon in Adelaide, South Australia back in 2015. After being mates and going to high school together, they went and did their own things before their love of all things design and creation brought the guys back together.
Shannon spent the last 20 years focusing on steel manufacturing (making all types of things with incredible steel). The son of a blacksmith, Shannon has always been comfortable stuck in the shed. He's a bit hard to get a hold of as he usually has his sleeves up and head down tinkering with something... usually a knife (not always).
Ramon spent the last 20 years obsessing with cooking and knives (and occasionally cutting his finger). He lost to Callum in very early rounds of the second season of MasterChef Australia back in 2010 and decided he'd concentrate on cooking tools more so than cooking dishes.
