Knives and Tools

Hand-forged pocket knives and tools, made in a small workshop in Devon, England.

Every single piece is unique and entirely hand-crafted from beginning to end.

Handles

Using a carefully selected range of materials and shaping each piece of wood, antler and horn by hand to bring out the individual features that make each knife one of a kind.

Blades

Working intuitively with the metal to hand-forge each blade from high-carbon steel, then embossing with the unique ORD leaf stamp and makers mark.

Decorative details

These friction-folding pocket knives are hinged on decorative washers, individually shaped to fit the handle and blade.

Practical design

A shepherd's crook or spiral forms the hinge to open the knife. The crook allows the knife to be tethered to its owner for safe keeping.

Other tools

Corkscrews, spoon knives, pruning knives, mushroom knives, wood carving tools and more are also made on occasion.

Made with integrity

Making each part of every piece by hand from start to finish, you can be assured of the quality and attention to detail that goes into every single product.
