Small Tasmanian Devil
A compact custom handmade fixed-blade knife designed for practical performance.
About this knife
Most Dark Blades knives are created as original stock pieces, but selected custom projects are also accepted.
A custom build begins with the intended use of the knife. We can then discuss the general shape, dimensions, blade geometry, construction and selected materials. Every project must still remain recognisable as a Dark Blades knife, with practical performance at the centre of the design.
Because each knife is made individually, not every request or material combination will be suitable. When the idea fits the Dark Blades style and we believe in the project, we will be happy to develop it together.
