Since 2006, Knoxville legends Whitechapel have slayed global audiences with their unique brand of uncompromising metal.
Working closely with the triple guitar threat of Zach Householder, Alex Wade and Ben Savage, Fortin are proud to bring you the Blade, the only pedal worthy of their collective name!
The Blade is a custom-designed boost that allows any metal player to sculpt their tone and find total sonic perfection. We had to ensure that guitarists Zach, Alex, and Ben had a pedal that would perfectly shape each part of Whitechapel’s Signature tone.
Saw: The overall level of the boost applied to the signal.
Cut: Treble control, tame or excite the top end of your signal perfectly within the boost.
Deep: Low end control, expand or reduce the amount of low end in the boost.
Got my first Fortin pedals, Tempest and Blade Blackout, and love both of them. They really help my high gain amps get pushed just passed the limit.

One of the sickest and heaviest OD pedal I've ever owned.

Tasty like TC Integrated Preamp, but has different flavour
Great addition to my booster/overdrive collection. As main difference from the "33" pedal, it allows you to shape sound of your guitar, when you have your own sound preferences and the "33" isn't enough for that. The pedal has active treble and bass controls, allowing you to cut or boost highs and lows of your guitar and find sound, which is suitable for you.

The Blade is FUKKN KILLRR
I totally dig this boost pedal that I bought 2, it really brings my tone upfront.
