The C5 Story
The C5 brand goes back generations. Great-grandpa Amasa Caldwell was one of five brothers who began using C5 as the cattle brand on his ranch. The family tradition carried on — dad worked the ranch at Slu Water and eventually moved operations to a small farm in Utah, keeping the C5 brand alive and actively used.
"I was little when we left the farm, but I remember it well — including the branding process, smell and all."
Sharpening started early. Dad taught the basics at a very young age — a skill that's been honed for years, and one that now drives everything we do at C5 Bladeworks.
