LOVE FOR THE CRAFT
I’m an aspiring artist who is always learning and improving. I want to make good knives that are functional, and quality. My ultimate goal is to make a knife that someone would want to pass down to their son, a quality piece that holds the memories of hikes, hunting adventures, camping trips & road trips.
MADE IN THE MOUNTAINS
MADE IN THE MOUNTAINS
Each knife is made by me, in the remote mountains of Lesotho, Africa. In the quiet beauty, I work away at making a knife that is better than the one before, always improving, always making a better knife.
MY STORY
I grew up in remote Lesotho, surrounded by the mountains. I’ve always enjoyed making things with my hands. One day when I was only 10 years old! I asked my dad “can I learn to be a gunsmith”. My dad obviously didn’t let a 10-year-old start making firearms. So he suggested, “maybe try to make a knife”. This kickstarted something that no one realised would grow into what it is now.
A passion, a love. For what?
For sharp, functional & good-looking custom knives.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where are you based?
I live in a small village in Lesotho called “Malealea”.
All Maluti Knives knives are designed & made in Lesotho, Africa.
Can I place an order for a custom knife?
Yes!
I love getting to work on custom knives.
Whether you want a completely new design, or an existing design with specific handle materials, details or engravings, I’m always down.
What is your return policy?
I’ve never had someone ask to return a knife before. I don’t have an official policy, but I do have a personal policy that states “always make the customer happy”.
If you are unhappy with your knife for any reason, please don’t hesitate to reach out and I’ll do my best to make amends.
Whether that means replacing/fixing the knife or offering a full refund.
Where do you ship to?
I ship internationally!
My most common shipping destinations are the United States & South Africa, but I can get you a quote for shipping to any other country!
Where are your knives shipped from?
Each knife is stocked in either South Africa or the United States. This is due to the US & SA being the most common buying locations. When you are on the product page there is a badge that states “stocked in” with either the United States flag or South African flag, this is to help you decide whether you want to buy that particular knife since having it shipped further may result in increased shipping costs & shipping delays.
How long does shipping typically take?
While I can’t promise an exact time, in general the timeframes for shipping are as follows after I receive the full payment.
International: 2-3 Weeks (from receipt of full payment).
National: 1-2 Weeks (from receipt of full payment).
