Material Excellence, Tailored by Hand
Irish Tweed Resin Handle – A Fusion of Textile Craft and Contemporary Strength
Each handle is cast using authentic Irish tweed fabric, suspended in crystal-clear resin to preserve its weave, colour, and cultural meaning. Strong, stabilised, and smooth to the touch, the result is a durable, heritage-rich handle unlike any other.
Hand-shaped and polished to clarity, it offers a one-of-a-kind look and a reassuring feel in hand.

1095 High-Carbon Steel – A Trusted Blade for Real-World Use
1095 carbon steel is chosen for its cutting power, toughness, and easy re-sharpening in the field. Favoured by knife makers and outdoorsmen alike, it provides a clean slicing action and builds patina with use — a living mark of ownership and time.
Regular oiling keeps the steel protected, ensuring long-term reliability in both wet and dry environments.

Key Attributes of 1095 High-Carbon Steel:
• Razor-sharp edge with excellent retention
• Tough and dependable in daily or outdoor use
• Sharpens easily with basic tools
• Builds a natural patina with time
• Requires light oiling for corrosion resistance

Handmade Leather Sheath – Protection That Ages With You
The Guardian is paired with a handmade leather sheath, shaped to secure the knife while providing easy access. Stitched and formed by hand, the sheath gains character with use — softening, darkening, and becoming a trusted companion alongside the blade itself.
