      That's understandable. Thanks :)

  • Is the folding one that was on special going to be in stock?

    • Yes its on order. New stock ETA about 4 to 5 weeks from now.

      Thanks :)

    Ahh. More spammy knife listings.

    • +6

      Yup wish they'd quit posting. It's low quality rubbish and it's on "sale" every month.

      Also I'm pretty sure the disclaimer about being over 18 to buy won't cut it. Imagine if Dan Murphy's did their deliveries and said "we trust you to be over 18"

        Hi,

        Have you actually bought any knife from us? If you did please PM us your order number to resolve any issues you have with the product.

        Thanks :)

        • +1

          No and I don't intend to. I'll stick to well made, reputable brands.

          Go post these in a knife community or /r/knives and see how many genuine responses you get endorsing the product.

          As previously posted on this deal and others, the stock is clearly sourced from Alibaba or similar sites. Listing the items as hand made isn't technically wrong but there is a difference between a genuine craftsman item and something made in a sweat shop in Pakistan.

          I've checked your site every now and then and every knife is always "on sale". It's misleading and frankly I don't think it should be posted here because it's not a genuine bargain. No different to the Rugs A Million closing down bargains that went on for years.

          I appreciate you're trying to make a buck but you should be more transparent. Posting about them being good quality and hand made isn't answering the regular questions that come up in your posts about steel quality, sample testing etc.

            @shadowfax1007: We don't source our knives from Alibaba. Yes there are many others doing that. Not us. We have people working for us on the ground that we work directly with.

          • @shadowfax1007: Appreciate if you could direct me a local knife community; wanna buy a good knife as a gift.

    I'm not too sure about cheap folded steels. Did they cut corners in the treatment of the steel like folding? Properly annealed? Etc. Unless you were just buying it to put on a shelf, I'd go for an simple stainless steel.

    OP/item also says a bunch of things I'm not sure are right. They say stainless steel, but 1095/15n20 are both carbon steels? Also "easy to sharpen and stays sharp longer" are generally opposite ends of the spectrum, you balance ease or sharpening for edge retention.

      These knives are genuinely handmade and no modern computerised machines or laser cutting tools are employed by the craftsmen. Traditional knife crafting processes and crafting skills gives each knife a unique individuality, personality, hold and feel.

      Our custom built-knives are carefully priced to make them affordable and at the same time offering an exceptionally good combination of quality and aesthetics. Please note that these handmade may have some minor cosmetic or aesthetic imperfections due to the nature of traditional crafting process and methods.

      We verify and test the quality of the materials used in these knives and make sure that it is of acceptable quality inline with the amazingly affordable price.

        I appreciate the long reply OP, but that was an atrocious reply.

        You didn't need to reply, but as you did you should have replied to my points on steel quality, as well as the fact you have incorrectly said this is stainless, and the hardness comment. Rather than going on about them being hand made and looking pretty. I personally really like a handmade blade!

        Now you just look like you have something to hide…

        Edit, I didn't actually neg your comment.

        • Hi,

          Since we have been listing our knives on OzBargain we had many return customers who after buying one knife from us has come back and ordered more.

          There are four different designs listed in this sale here. One of the design is stainless steel blade. Three other designs are Damascus blades.

          And please note that we have nothing to hide.

          Thanks :)

          • -3

            @pepnimble: "we had many return customers "

            They just don't bother upvoting your posts or replying to the queries posters have as happens with most other offers in this community?

            If, perchance, English isn't your first language, google the term "weasel words" and "boilerplate".

            Then imagine you have a market stall where people feel free to, and do, comment on your products, their quality and your sales pitch not as a bug, but as a feature.

            Don't, however, think of creating any support. This is not an echo on a 1985 Fido bulletin board run by a precocious adolescent…

            • -1

              @terrys: These knives are made from acceptable quality material inline with the price tag. We don't do drop shipping from overseas and don't source it from unknow/unreliable sources via Alibaba. We have teams working on the ground for us. We have been in business since 2005. AU consumer law applies to the sales we do and the buyers are entitled to rights they have under AU consumer laws.

              I hope you understand that many small-businesses are mum and dad type of businesses and the only or main source of income for their families. We are not looking to make quick bucks buy defrauding others and then disappearing from the scene. We have been running this business since 2005. There are still some honest people around who are trying to do the right thing so please don't just assume if there others doing something wrong then we will also be doing wrong.

              If you really keen to research more please do contact some of these suppliers on Alibaba and see what actual price quotes they give and also make sure you ask them the shipping costs. Plus the custom duty and 10% GST paid to AU customs. After all that research…you will surely appreciate the affordable prices of our knives and top bargains.

        What tests of the quality of the materials have you done?

        • -3

          Hi,

          Our team does various tests to verify the quality of Damascus steel and other materials and the quality workmanship. Also, we expose samples of the knives to various rough environmental and stress conditions to ensure that these knives can withstand that.

          Thanks.

          • +3

            @pepnimble: So you could post evidence of your testing since you have nothing to hide.

            • @colinjames: We don't think you will trust anything we share in this regard. You seem to be bent on portraying us negatively from the very start. We understand that this is part of advertising on Ozbargain to experience trolling or unwanted negative comments. We can post a video breaking/cutting stuff with a knife…will you trust it? We don't wish to deploy such tactics as advertisement tools but rather we are looking to establish a loyal customer base who appreciate the quality of our knives and other products related to the affordable prices.

              For example: Our team on the ground shared this video with us that we uploaded on YouTube to share it here. Please have a look here on YouTube. By the way these type of robust/tough blade knives will be available through our website in coming months. Not just the made in Pakistan ones but also from Central Asian states. Traditional handmade designs. Have a look at this YouTube video on our channel.

              Of course someone desiring to buy something of that standard/level as shown in the video (link above) should also expect a much higher price tag. Having said that it doesn't mean less expensive knives we sell should be deemed unacceptable. These budget range knives are still of adequate quality and workmanship well inline with the price.

              Again please note that we don't dropship from overseas and do not source it via Alibaba. We have our team on ground working directly for us.

              I hope you understand that these handmade knives are made by craftsmen, in rural areas, using traditional skills. These are not manufactured in a large ISO9000 or whatever certified factory with a large quality control department.

              I hope you will also appreciate that these making these handmade knives involves much more time and effort as compared to factory produced knives. The unique feel and attachment to a handmade knife is way above then a factory produced knives. Handmade knives are not just a knife but also a piece of art and carries a tradition and story. Plus livelihood of many poor craftsmen and their families comes from making and selling these knives. By buying these knives you are also helping many poor families around the world.

              For those who are willing to exercise some positivity and good will may benefit from the following words we have to say.

              We are family-owned small business, established since 2005, located in Brisbane. In the past our business was mainly involved in computer/IT related sales and repairs. For the past two years or so we have been looking to expand our business in ecommerce focusing mainly on sourcing unique handmade products from around the world.

              Our handmade knives are NOT dropped shipped from overseas. We have team on ground that make sure that quality material and workmanship is employed to produce these knives. Here in Brisbane we individually inspect each knife and pack it ourselves for delivery. We are a registered business in Australia and Australian consumer law applies to all the sales we do. So if the customer is not happy with any knife they can opt for a return or whatever remedy they are entitled under the Australia consumer laws.

              Also, please have look at the reviews our customers have left for us on Google here . You can see from the reviews that greatly value building customer service and we don't want to rely on any cheap tactics to do quick sales. There is demand for handmade knives and other handmade products in Australia and around and world and we want to source such unique products for our customers with honesty and goodwill.

              • @pepnimble: If you want to send me a knife I will do a review for OzBargain. Whilst I’m not a reviewer or even an obsessive knife guy, as a park ranger type of guy I use knives almost daily at work.

                My main uses are cutting rope, batoning chicken legs, cutting a pointy end on to sticks to use as survey markers and occasionally autopsying predators (foxes etc.) to see what native animals they have been eating.

                Although, this being OzBargain and all, people will probably screech that my tests were faked or something if the knife holds up well…

                • @mapax: Hi,

                  We appreciate your offer. Although we are not keen to deploy such advertisement tools on large scale but maybe for some guys with raised eyebrows it may be a good idea to calm them down a bit :) :)

                  We have hundreds of more handmade knives and other handmade items inline that we will putting up for sale on our website as the stocks arrive. For example some of the top handmade knife makers from Russia have 2 to 3 years wait times to deliver orders and price tag will be around $900 to $1200…exclusive collectible knives.

                  As you rightly said that no matter what you do there will always be someone trying to speculate negativity or suspicion. That's part of the Ozbargain advertisement though :)

                  Another project we are working on is some unique handmade shoes focusing on affordable price range but without much compromise on quality and aesthetics.

                  Please contact us directly via the contact details mentioned on our website. The current stock is almost gone. We expect more stock in 4 to 5 weeks time from now. Will be happy to workout an arrangement with you as you proposed.

                  Thanks :)

              • @pepnimble: The youtube video links have been removed by the uploader and it seems that you have something to hide or you would be able to show the results of these tests you claim to do.

            • @colinjames: lets see if you trust these videos? Got a team member to send me some "testing videos" for the curios ones….of some knives in making for our stock :)

              https://youtu.be/M9VPXeBcKYQ

              https://youtu.be/szpwoZKPuj8

              Thanks for watching :)

              • @pepnimble: Videos removed by uploader

                I would trust the videos if they could be viewed, but they are not available in keeping with your secrecy. If they were such good quality then it would make no sense to remove the videos showing that good quality.

                On the other hand, if they were not of such good quality, it would make complete sense to be evasive and remove such information.

        Any reliable assessment you can do how much mark-up we have here?

        If you really keen to research more please do contact some of these suppliers on Alibaba and see what actual price quotes they give and also make sure you ask them the shipping costs. Plus the custom duty and 10% GST paid to AU customs. After all that research…you will surely appreciate the affordable prices of our knives as top bargains.

        And wait…also include the shipping costs to buyers (as we do free delivery). Plus the cost and time for admin, handling, packaging etc. Let's see what figures you come up with :)

          sorry…forgot to mention the associated costs of having a team on ground that ensures that products are made as per the expected quality of material and workmanship….try figuring these costs out.

          How will you trust some unknown person who is maybe just a freelance sales agent sort of a guy on Alibaba.com to actually send you the stuff how it appears in these heavily photoshopped photos? And always keep in mind that these prices on Alibaba.com are hugely underquoted with the sole intention of attracting prospective buyers….when you go ahead and actually ask for the prices…..you will get some reality check I am sure….And wait until you receive the actual products….highly likely that you may end up receiving some very inferior quality junk knives….

          Ours are certainly not that like that. We stand behind the quality of our handmade knives. We deal with trustworthy makers with whom we have a good business relationship. And please do remember that for $100+/- knife you can expect quality and strength of a $300+/- knife. It is not fair that someone buys a Toyota Camry but expects the looks, quality performance etc. of Toyota Rav4 or Kluger.

          Thanks

  • If you need a knife to actually use, get a Mora. It'll take a beating, its scandi grind is easy to sharpen, and it will generally do everything you ask of it

    • This and my $10 bahco which is pretty much the same knife are my general camp and hike knives. They do take a beating for sure, I even cut down a 12cm thick palm tree one day when stress testing the carbon Mora 😂.

      That said a Mora isn't the be all and end all. Lots of good inexpencive knives.

      I will review one, then I'll post back :)

      • I agree, i also take my becker BK2 when hiking and camping, but there's never been a scenario where a basic Mora couldn't do whatever i needed of it. I know the BK2 is basically an axe and can chop trees if asked, but I've never really needed that in real life.

        Looking forward to the review. I'm not above buying no name (even Aliexpress) knives if they are decent - SanRenMu (well, and Mora) are proof even cheap knives can be made well.

        • Check out an opinel if you like whittling. The smaller sizes are very good for that.

          I used to use my triflex mora for the whittling but the opinel is better for control work

          • @Slippery Fish: No word of a lie, i have at least a dozen opinels from size 6 all the way to 12 (mostly size 8 with different steel and handles). They're basically the folding Mora.

  • Are the knives Australian made?

    • No these knives are handmade in Wazirabad, Pakistan.
