Welcome to SGW Knives the home of custom hand made bushcraft knives and leatherwork.

I am based on the North Island of New Zealand producing by hand knives of heirloom quality for real world use.  All work is carried out by me using only the best materials I can source, where ever possible supporting New Zealand and Australian suppliers.

My goal is to produce the best Bushcrafting, Camp and Bush knives in NZ and in the southern hemisphere, this is my main passion after all. My knives are built for real world use with everything you need, a lot of what you like and nothing you don`t.

Please note my order book for commissions is currently closed, however my  site is constantly being updated with new information, my current models and items I have available to sell now are in the 'available now' section, or email for possible knives available now or to go on the waiting list for a style of knife I produce.

I have taken this approach as the time required to develop custom options was just not viable in my current situation, but I hope to re offer this at a date in the future.

Thank you for visiting my site, I hope to be of service where ever possible and maybe we will meet around a campfire real soon.​
