Questions & answers

Ivory-coloured handle: price, quality and material

What is this folding knife's price in Pakistan?

US$3.60 per piece (PKR 1,508 for buyers in Pakistan). From 50 pieces the price drops to US$2.52 per piece. For a larger order, send us the quantity on WhatsApp or by email and we will quote a lower rate.

Is the handle made of real ivory?

No. Ivory white describes the colour only: the handle is ABS, a tough synthetic, which keeps the knife easy to clean and entirely free of animal materials. If you prefer a natural handle, the range also includes bone- and horn-handled grafting knives.

Care & maintenance

Clean habits for a pale handle in the orchard

A pale handle shows every smear of soil and sap, which is useful: you can see at a glance when this grafting knife needs cleaning.

  • Wash the ABS handle with warm, soapy water and dry it; skip scouring pads, which leave fine scratches that hold dirt.
  • Clean the 8.5 cm stainless blade with alcohol between rootstocks, especially when working through trees that may carry disease.
  • Dry the inox bolster and the joint before folding; water trapped in a closed knife is what leaves stains.
  • Every few weeks, put a drop of light oil on the pivot and open and close the blade until it runs smoothly.
  • Keep it out of strong sun between sessions, since long exposure can yellow pale plastics.
Pro tip

Rotate two knives through a disinfectant jar

Many professional propagators work with two knives: one in the hand, the other standing open in a jar of disinfectant with only the blade submerged. Swap them at each new plant or row, and disease has far less chance of travelling with you. This model suits the routine, because its ABS handle and stainless 8.5 cm blade tolerate repeated dipping; just dry the joint at the end of the day.

Quality check

Pale handles reveal flaws: what to inspect

White handles show faults that a darker colour would hide, so inspection is quick and telling.

  • The ivory tone should be even across the 10 cm handle, without grey streaks or yellowed patches.
  • Where the inox bolster meets the ABS, the joint is flush and clean.
  • The 8.5 cm blade opens without catching, runs straight and closes centred.
  • The edge shows a consistent bevel from the bolster to the point.
  • The polished faces of the blade are free of scratches.
