Questions & answers

Bone-handled sawback: questions and answers

What is the Damascus knife price in Pakistan?

US$46.75 per piece (PKR 13,590 for buyers in Pakistan). From 50 pieces the price drops to US$32.73 per piece. For a larger order, send us the quantity on WhatsApp or by email and we will quote a lower rate.

How does it differ from the teak version?

Blade, sawback and engraved brass are identical: 25 cm of Damascus and 39 cm overall. Only the handle changes, white bone here for a light, ivory-like look, and teak on the sibling for a warmer, darker one.

Quality check

Hairline cracks, specks and engraved brass: what to check

Natural bone has its own quirks, so a quality check on this Pakistan Damascus knife starts with the handle:

  • Look along the 14 cm bone handle for hairline cracks, especially near the brass fittings.
  • Small specks and variations in tone are natural; deep stains or soft spots are not.
  • Check that the hand-engraved brass sits flush against the bone at both ends.
  • The sawback cutouts should be evenly spaced and free of sharp burrs.
  • Confirm the blade seats fully in the leather case, which should close without pressure on the edge.

The story

Bone, the handle material that replaced ivory

Bone has been used for knife handles for as long as people have made knives, and for good reason: it is hard, it takes a polish, and it has always been available as a by-product of livestock. As ivory became scarce and then restricted, bone took its place on fine cutlery, offering a similar pale warmth without the ethical cost. Cutlers learned to dye it, jig it for texture, or leave it smooth and white.

This Pakistan knife with a bone handle keeps the plain white finish, which shows off the hand-engraved brass fittings at each end. Paired with a 25 cm Damascus blade and its decorative sawback, the bone gives the knife a light, classic presence.
