Ruffian design group is an unlikely band of engineers, designers, rocket scientists, nuclear physicists, electricians, carpenters, welders, riggers, marines, lighting technicians, automation specialists, pyrotechnicians, mechanics, bartenders and general ne’er do wells that come together once a month to cook up schemes and design objects that generally benefit one if not many of the members of the cabal.

With the fixation on small-scale manufacturing started in 2019 by Evil Gabe, Ruffian Design has become a household name in communities unlucky enough to have experienced hyper-niche problems such as spun-and -haunted socapex, bargain-bin true1 jumpers, and the Great Suffering of 2024.

Our first product, the HammerHeart knife, was designed and built during the coronavirus pandemic and put to use shortly afterwards on the load-in of Glowfari 2021. Using the machinery and technical skill cultivated during our year and a half chilling in a windowless one bedroom apartment, Ruffian Design was able to branch out into different industries and obsessions such as flavored nicotine, theatrical lighting, video production, long range ballistics, electrical engineering, eggnog, and computer science. Thusly, our team has a wide range of expertise and is able to do something about just about anything.

So call us when you’re having a problem and we’ll see if we can make you a gizmo that gets you out of it.
