You asked, we delivered!

Paracord Handle Wrapping Kits

Synthetic Handle Scales

Introducing... Our Paracord Handle Wrapping Kit!!

Not only do you get your choice of paracord which comes in 18 different colours, but you also get access to our VlakVark Forge training videos.
These videos will take you step by step through how to wrap your own knife and all for just £12.

To apply the kit, you will need a lanyard hole drilled in the handle of your knife.

If the knife you made at Vlakvark Forge doesn’t have a lanyard hole drilled in the handle, or the handle needs a little reshaping too, and you don’t feel confident doing it, then don’t worry. Just send your knife to us and we’ll get this done for you for just an extra £7.50 and we’ll post it back with your wrapping kit.

(Just make sure when posting your knife, you wrap the blade in thick cardboard from an old box and tape it up securely. If asked at the Post Office what’s in the packet say steel – perfectly true and acceptable to the PO. Just don’t use the K word!!!)

The shop will be open very soon!

Coming VERY soon!

Introducing... Our Synthetic Handle Scales!!

We have two options for you to choose from, Kirinite and Micarta.

But, what's the difference?

Kirinite Scales

Kirinite is a pure acrylic material that comes in stunning colours and patterns and will polish to a brilliant shine. It cannot, however, handle heat. Trimming and shaping of the scale once fitted to the knife is best achieved with hand tools or a belt sander with speed control, a sharp belt and running at very low speed. If you like a bit of bling then Kirinite is for you

Kirinite Kit

Micarta Scales

Micarta is paper or hessian set in a phenolic resin and comes plain or layered colours. Micarta is incredibly tough but only cleans up to a satin finish.

It won’t burn if shaping on a single speed belt sander but can equally be finished using hand tools.

Royal Pearl

Venom

Oyster
