Tools, knives and axes for sale

Knives for sale.
UK law says you have to be over 18 to buy a knife. If you are buying a knife you are stating you are over 18 and are legally allowed to buy controlled edge tools.

Mora knives have a reputation worldwide for their excellence and Sean Hellman highly recommends them for green woodwork and bushcraft, especially having used them for over 20 years.

Granfors Bruks axes, again made in Sweden, are some of the best axes you can buy. The carving axe is one of the best green wood woodwork tools we have come across.

crfatline punch knife

Craftline Punch

This is a favourite of mine. I was doubtful at first, as it was a stainless steel blade. Over a year of using it I have become a great fan of this knife. Great for tight concave cuts because of its narrow blade.

The Triflex has a 4-1/4” long differentially hardened Sandvik carbon steel blade, similar to the 120 and 106 with a classic scandinavian grind. The core is harder than the cheeks of the blade making it immensely strong and able to hold a superb edge. Triflex is easier to use with a firesteel than stainless but is not corrosion resistant and should therefore be treated accordingly.
