Sao Knives

SAOKnife is a meticulously crafted knife brand founded by renowned bladesmith Sao Ge ("Brother Sao"), seamlessly blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary innovation. Rooted in the heritage of classic pocket knives, we delve deep into centuries-old knifemaking techniques—preserving their elegant proportions, reliable construction, and humanistic warmth—while continuously integrating modern advancements in materials science, ergonomic design, and functional practicality. This philosophy has naturally expanded our offerings to include modern tactical knives and everyday carry (EDC) tools.

Every SAOKnife is personally forged, ground, assembled, and fine-tuned by Sao Ge himself. From material selection to final finishing, each step reflects an unwavering commitment to detail—whether it’s the precise heat treatment of high-carbon steel, the exacting fit of titanium liners, the warm luster of vintage brass rivets, or the buttery-smooth action of modern bearing systems. Each blade embodies profound respect and passion for the art of handcraftsmanship.

We create more than just tools—we convey a way of life. In today’s fast-paced digital age, SAOKnife champions tangible quality, dependable companionship, and understated beauty held in the palm of your hand. Our knives are both a tribute to the rich legacy of cutlery history and a bold exploration of its future possibilities—offering exceptional utility, refined aesthetics, and collectible value for discerning users and collectors who appreciate true craftsmanship and intentional living.
