It is indeed a fact that when a designer aims to create a heavy-duty product, they often adhere to the age-old principle: "Form Follows Function." However, Jason Breeden is more than just a designer; he is a solutionist! According to his own definition, a "Solutionist" is a practical artist who devises unique solutions to challenges. Therefore, when Jason embarked on the journey to design the Country Backroads Series, he was fulfilling a lifelong aspiration to incorporate the elegantly functional leather-stacked handle style that he has long admired. Combining naturally occurring materials such as hickory and leather adds a personalized touch to a well-established construction technique, resulting in the creation of both aesthetically pleasing and practical tools suitable for a wide range of tasks.
