How Our Handmade Knives Are Made

From raw steel to a finished handmade knife — every NB Knives blade goes through a careful craftsmanship process.

01 — Forging the Steel
The steel is heated and forged to create the foundation of the blade.

02 — Pattern Creation
For Damascus knives, different steels are layered and forged together to create the unique Damascus pattern.

03 — Blade Shaping
The forged steel is carefully shaped, profiled, ground, and refined to achieve the desired blade design.

04 — Heat Treatment
The blade undergoes controlled heat treatment to develop the required hardness, strength, and durability.

05 — Handle Fitting
Selected handle materials are precisely fitted and finished to create a comfortable and secure grip.

06 — Sharpening & Finishing
The edge is carefully sharpened while the blade receives its final polishing and finishing touches.

07 — Final Inspection
Every knife is inspected for craftsmanship, finish, sharpness, and overall quality before it is prepared for its new owner.
