Peasant Knife with sheath

Based on a knife design used in Bohemia and Bavaria 300–400 years ago, the Svörd B.W. Baker Peasant Knife proves that sometimes the old ways are still the best.

Forget fancy gadgets — if you want a knife to cut things with, this is your tool.

Proudly made in New Zealand, the Peasant Knife is beautifully simple, easy to use and built from the finest steel, hardened and tempered using Svörd’s own process. Its classic Baker convex edge gives excellent cutting performance, while the simple friction-folding design makes it easy to carry and open.

Paired with a handcrafted Clouston Craft leather sheath, the Peasant Knife becomes a practical everyday companion that’s ready to work. Carry it securely on your belt and put it to use around the farm, workshop or camp. A simple, hardworking New Zealand-made knife matched with a quality leather sheath built to last — It’s a practical little knife with centuries of history behind it — and plenty of character.
