Knight Equipment Company, Inc. was founded in 1945 by Aubrey Knight, after working for Broderick & Bascom Rope Company since 1927. His son, R.J. Knight, worked along side his father until, in December 1975, he purchased and incorporated the business from his father. The business was eventually sold to R.J.'s son Justin. Knight Equipment Company, Inc. continues under that leadership today.
