Pakistan Knives FactoryDecades of Manufacturing, Wholesale Worldwide
This grafting knife has a straight blade and warm acacia wood handle, brass bolster, 10 cm, made in Pakistan.
This grafting knife pairs an 8.5 cm straight blade with a 10 cm warm acacia wood handle and a polished brass bolster. Manufactured in Pakistan, its full-size build suits regular orchard and vineyard grafting work. A wholesale item for retailers wanting a wood-handle grafting knife with a brass accent.
Beginners tend to saw at scion wood with the last part of the edge, which leaves a ridged face that will not knit. With this grafting knife, start the cut near the brass bolster and draw the full 8.5 cm straight blade through the wood in one long, steady pull. A single stroke gives a flat surface; a second stroke rarely improves it.
They are when made with care, and Sialkot's knife workshops have a long record of exporting folding tools worldwide. On this model you can check the basics in a minute: a straight 8.5 cm stainless blade with an even bevel, a polished brass bolster set flush against the acacia, and a joint that opens cleanly. A Pakistan stainless steel knife built this way will last through many grafting seasons.
The price at the top of this page is for a single knife, shown in rupees (PKR) for buyers in Pakistan. Orchard suppliers and garden centres ordering for the season can request a wholesale quote on WhatsApp or by email; the more knives in the order, the lower the price per piece.
Yes. Its full-size build suits regular orchard and vineyard work: the straight blade is long enough for the sloping cuts used in bench grafting vines, and the 10 cm acacia handle fills the hand comfortably through a long session.
Acacia's honey-to-reddish tones and a polished brass bolster give this knife the warmest look in the stainless grafting range, and warm colours sit well beside green plants and terracotta pots.
The card can also note that the Pakistani blade is stainless, a reassurance for any outdoor tool.
Few gardening skills have a longer written record than joining one plant onto another. The Greek philosopher Theophrastus described it in the fourth century BC, and Roman farm writers such as Cato and Columella gave instructions for cleft grafting and for sealing the union with clay. Their basic rules, a clean cut and close contact between the living layers, still hold.
The tool evolved with the trade. As commercial nurseries grew in Europe and North America in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, budding and grafting became daily work, and the folding grafting knife became a standard part of the nurseryman's kit. In Pakistan, the same skills keep Punjab's orchards productive: kinnow mandarins are budded onto rough lemon rootstock, and mango varieties are propagated by grafting. A full-size knife with a straight 8.5 cm blade belongs to that working tradition.
