Custom Handles

Here is a selection of our knives which have custom or limited edition handles.

We work with UK crafts people to create our own handles to give some special knives their own identity, and we also have some limited batches from the Blacksmiths.

Sometimes we have one-off customs which are truly something special for the collector.
