Questions & answers

Good to know about the compact teak pruner

Does Pakistan make good knives?

It does, and has for a long time. Pakistan knives come mainly from Sialkot, a city whose workshops have exported cutlery for well over a century. Like knives from anywhere, they range from basic to very fine, so judge each one. This pruner is deliberately simple: a stainless 7 cm blade, a teak handle and no bolster. What you want to feel is a smooth opening and a blade that folds back centred.

What is the folding knife price in Pakistan for this teak pruner?

The price for one knife is shown at the top of this page; visitors in Pakistan see it in rupees and can buy by WhatsApp. Garden centres and market stalls buying in bulk pay less per knife, and the rate falls further with larger quantities. Message us or send an email for a wholesale quote.

Is teak a good handle wood for garden tools?

Very good. Teak is dense and naturally rich in oils, so it resists damp and does not swell easily, which is why it has long been used for boat decks and outdoor furniture. A wipe of oil once or twice a year keeps its colour even.

How to use

Harvesting grape bunches with a short hooked blade

At harvest, a small hooked blade knife is quicker than secateurs for many pickers: the curve finds the stem among the leaves, and one pull frees the bunch.

  1. Open the 7 cm blade fully before you reach into the vine, and fold it whenever you walk between rows.
  2. Cup the bunch from below with your free hand, so it does not fall when cut.
  3. Slip the curve over the stem close to the cane, edge facing you, and pull through in one movement.
  4. Lower the bunch into the crate rather than dropping it, so the berries do not split.
  5. At the end of the day, rinse the sticky juice off the blade and the teak, then dry both.
Did you know?

Silica in teak blunts woodworkers' tools

Teak is famous for being easy on the eye but hard on tools. The wood contains tiny particles of silica, taken up from the soil as the tree grows, and those mineral grains wear down saw teeth and planer blades far faster than most hardwoods do. Many woodworkers use carbide-tipped tools on it for that reason. On a knife handle, that same dense, oily structure is what makes it so durable.

Which one to choose
