Silverman Bros

Silverman Bros is a small, earnest operation run by three brothers in Missoula, Montana. They make wooden swords. Real, hands-on thing, learned over time with help from their dad. They sell their work online and at local markets.

From the start, I wanted the identity to feel as physical as the work itself. The badge mark was designed to feel like something you might see in a metal shop or burned into leather. Simple. Durable. A mark that could take a little abuse and still hold up. The focus was on building a brand that felt honest and sturdy rather than clever, something that could grow alongside the business without ever feeling like it was pretending to be more than it is.
