Mini mahogany peasant knife by Svord made in Waiuku, New Zealand

The Svord Peasant Knife is a classic Kiwi friction-folding pocket knife, made by master cutler Bryan Baker and his team at Svord in Waiuku, New Zealand. This is the 2.5" Mini with a solid mahogany handle — a compact everyday carry that's perfect for the picnic basket, the tackle box or the kitchen drawer.

Care Instructions: Hand wash in warm soapy water and dry straight away. Never put it in the dishwasher. Oil the blade occasionally with a little olive or vegetable oil to protect against rust. Carbon steel develops a natural patina with use. Have it professionally sharpened about once a year, or whenever it starts to feel dull. In Christchurch we recommend KASS Sharpening Services on St Asaph Street.
