Svörd

At the age of 18 Bryan Baker, master cutler, started to establish his company Svörd Knives in New Zealand back in 1983. The rustic-style working and utility knives feature a simple but effective locking mechanism at which the elongated back of the blade slides into the notch on the handle. Two brass screws enable the individual adjustment of the locking mechanism. The blades are made of Swedish carbon steel (Sandvik 15N20), which ensures an extremely long edge life. The black forged skin on the rear part of the blade emphasizes the rustic look of the knife. Not rustproof.
