FAQs

1. What makes handmade knives different from factory-made knives?
Handmade knives are crafted individually by skilled artisans, ensuring each knife is unique and meets high standards of quality. The craftsmanship involved often includes detailed hand-forging, superior materials, and a personal touch that results in a blade with excellent performance, durability, and aesthetics.

2. What materials are used in making handmade knives?
Our handmade knives are typically crafted from high-quality carbon steel, stainless steel, or Damascus steel for blades, ensuring strength and edge retention. Handles are made from durable materials such as wood, bone, or synthetic composites to offer a comfortable and stylish grip.

3. How do I care for my handmade knife?
To maintain your knife's quality, always clean and dry it thoroughly after each use. For carbon steel blades, applying a light coat of oil can prevent rust. Avoid dishwasher cleaning, as it can dull the blade and damage the handle over time. Store your knife in a safe, dry place.
