African Knives belongs to Africangold.co.za

We are primarily manufacturing jewellers.Whether you are looking for corporate gifts or a special gift for a man - you will find something to be treasured.

My interest in Damascus was driven by it's sister process of Mokume Gane. The colours and the patterns which can be achieved by folding different metals fascinate me.

We do not make the Damascus - I leave that to the experts - but we do make our own Mokume Gane and we do design our own blades - often cutting and grinding the blades ourselves. Often the strange shapes we want are not easily made by knife makers. Monume Gane Knives are expensive - with the amount of labour that goes into the process it is understandable.

These are not hunting knives or utility knives but are rather dress knives or collectors knives to be worn with a suit. In saying that - the blades are hardened and are top quality - meaning that if you have to get down and dirty - the knife will stand up to normal use.

We are happy to look at custom designs - it is a long process... and expensive, but we promise you will end up with a quality original knife. If you have a blade you wish to be trimmed in precious metals - give us a shout and we will see if we can help. Have a look at our sister site - www.jewelry.co.za for more gifting ideas.
