    Default 20th Anniversary knives

    Feb 2022 was my 20th year making knives for a living,and,to commemorate this milestone,we decided to do 20 sequentially numbered knives

    the first 3 are hollow handle knives,no 1 is a Shikari,no 2 is a Shikari with sawteeth,no 3 is a First Blood.
    we included hand-built "ammo boxes" with these knives.

    Good day all

    Thanks guys for all the kind words

    I am Abdullah, introduced in the first thread, CFO and marketing manager, and all round shop monkey. I will be more active on the Dealer forum to update and to showcase some of our latest works, as my father has more grinding to do than I.

    Number 4 of 20 in our anniversary line of Knives was an exciting build. The Urban Gladiator is a one off double edged sword in hand finished 5160 spring steel with a manual milled fuller, micarta handle and 3CR12 guard and pommel. An absolute monster to weild. 20220803_143017.jpg20220803_143054.jpg

    Wow, that is impressive.

    How is it to wield? I take it you gave it just the right weight?

    Thank you!

    It weighed in at slightly over 1.4kg, but we managed to get the blade to balance approximately 100mm from the guard so it is quite maneuverable single handed or dual handed since the handle is a "hand and a half"
