About Us

Real steel. Real hands. Made to last.

We're KHIZAR TRADERS, a blade workshop and export brand from Pakistan. Punjab has a long tradition of cutlery and blade-smithing, and that's where every piece we sell comes from. We make knives, swords, axes, kitchen knives and wooden shields by hand, and we ship them to customers around the world.

Our idea is simple. Most of what people buy today is mass-produced, disposable and forgotten within a year. We make the opposite: tools with character, built by skilled people, that you'll actually use and one day pass on.

We make all

• Outdoor and hunting knives: fixed blades and folders made for camping, bushcraft, hiking and the hunt.
• Everyday carry (EDC): compact folding knives that fit in your pocket and handle everyday jobs.
• Kitchen knives: sharp, balanced blades for home cooks and people who take food seriously.
• Swords: statement pieces for collectors, display and martial arts lovers.
• Axes: forged heads for the camp, the woodpile and the trail.
• Wooden shields: handcrafted shields for display, collecting, cosplay and reenactment.
• Collector pieces: one-of-a-kind blades for people who love craftsmanship.

All steels we use

• Damascus steel: layers of 1095 and 15N20 high-carbon steel are forge-welded, folded and hand-etched until the flowing pattern shows. It's a real pattern in the steel, not printed or laser-etched, so no two blades look the same.
• High-carbon steel: tough, easy to sharpen and holds a strong edge. A classic choice for outdoor and working knives.
• High-polished steel: a clean mirror finish with a sleek, modern look that's easy to maintain.

How every blade is made

1. Forging: the steel is heated in the forge and shaped on the anvil with thousands of hammer strikes.
2. Shaping and grinding: each blade is profiled and ground by hand.
3. Heat treatment: hardening and tempering make the blade hard enough to hold an edge and tough enough to take real use.
4. Finishing: Damascus is etched to reveal its pattern, and polished blades are buffed to a mirror shine.
5. Handle fitting: handles are fitted with steel liners and brass pins for a secure grip.
6. Sharpening and checks: every edge is hand-sharpened on the stone and checked before it leaves our workshop.

Why people choose us

• Handmade, not mass-made: every piece is shaped by skilled craftsmen, not a production line.
• One of a kind: handmade means small differences, so your blade is truly yours.
• Built for a lifetime: buy once, use for years and pass it on. Less waste, more value.
• Personal engraving: add initials, a name or a special date to make it a gift nobody forgets.
• Leather sheath: our knives come in a hand-stitched leather sheath, ready to carry.
• Sharp out of the box: ready for the field, the trail or the kitchen from day one.
• Straight from the makers: you buy directly from the source, with no middlemen.

Who we make it for

Campers, hunters, hikers, EDC fans, home cooks, collectors, history and fantasy fans, and anyone looking for a gift with real meaning. If you care about how things are made and want something that lasts, you're in the right place.

Caring for your blade

Wipe your blade dry after use and keep a light coat of mineral or knife oil on it, especially Damascus and high-carbon steel. For long-term storage, keep knives out of their leather sheath so moisture isn't trapped against the steel. Look after it and it will look after you for decades.

Worldwide shipping

We're based in Pakistan and ship internationally, so wherever you are, our forge is only an order away.

Responsible ownership

Our blades are tools and collector items. Please handle them with care, keep them away from children, and check the laws in your country or state on owning and carrying knives and swords.
