In 1972, the company originated as Knight Specialties in Morgan City, Louisiana, out of the trunk of founder Eddy Knight’s car. Through organic growth and acquisitions, the company became Knight Oil Tools in 1984. Knight Oil Tools’ vision is to build upon our strong commitment to provide quality equipment and outstanding customer service. We continually expand the company’s abilities with innovative technology, knowledgeable personnel and uncompromising service. Knight Oil Tools has evolved into a company that provides complete rental, fishing, manufacturing packages, drilling jars, inspection, hardbanding and safety training to the oil and gas industry – worldwide.

Knight Oil Tools broadens operations and technologies, both domestically and internationally, through internal growth, well-executed acquisitions and the enhancement of manufacturing capabilities. However, the attributes that have remained constant since 1972, include the level of experienced personnel, quality equipment and a commitment to safety and service within each service line.

Today, Knight Oil Tools and its service lines—Rental Tool Services, Fishing Services, Manufacturing, Inspection and Hardbanding and QHSE Training and Consulting—are the largest privately held rental and fishing tools company in the world.
