Knives made by a Hunter, for hunters

Welcome

I've been hunting for over 20 years and crafting handcrafted knives in my home workshop since 2018. My hunting knives NZ are practical 'work-horses' that are functional and field-tested. They hold an edge well and are designed to be worn on your belt. 


I also do skull bleaching for Euro mounts.
