Custom Knives

With over 25 years industry experience, Barry Gardner is one of Australia’s leading bladesmiths. Specialising in Japanese-style kitchen knives and bespoke-yet-functional hunting knives, he is ready to create a knife that you will love to own… “because handmade goods have a heartbeat, and a piece of their creator in them”.

We offer a specialised service whereby you are encouraged to supply materials for your order that are meaningful to you. Previous orders have included the use of the propeller from Grandad’s boat,  a beloved pet’s dog bowl, Dad’s old shotgun barrel… and the list goes on. Don’t let those items sit in storage and rust… let us use them to create a functional heirloom!

If you have something sentimental that you would like to include in your custom order, please mention it below when making your enquiry. We look forward to creating something very special for you and your family.

In order to create a knife, or set of knives, that you will love the look and feel of, we need to spend time discussing your preferences.
