People want their knives to depict their culture, lifestyle, or even a memory. For this reason, most people often go the extra step to customize their knives and make them more beautiful. 

Nowadays, more than ever, there are many things you can do to your knives to make them stand out, represent what you stand for while also maintaining their overall usefulness. There are many experts out there who specialize in customizing knives and ensuring they meet their clients’ specifications. 

Even if you do not have a specific idea about what you can do to personalize your knife, you don’t need to worry. This article is made specifically for you.

The following are some great things you can do to make your knife even more beautiful and appealing:

  1. Go for the best handle 

Most of the time, when people are talking about knives, they tend to focus more on the blades. There are not enough people out there who appreciate the essence of a great knife handle. 

When you decide to beautify and personalize your knives, the handle is one of the most important parts you should consider. This is because it tells more about your style and variety more than any other part of the knife. 

While the blade only focuses on the main purpose of the knife, the handle is your ideal point to showcase your personality and what exactly the knife symbolizes to you. Nowadays, there are lots of materials to choose from when it comes to your knife handles. 

Some of these materials have been around for ages, while others result from innovations in science. 

The following are some of the different handle materials you can choose from:

  • Stainless steel. 
  • Titanium.
  • Aluminum.
  • Carbon fiber.
  • Micarta.
  • G-10.
  • FRN/Zytel.
  • Bone.
  • Wood.
  • Mother of Pearl.
  • Leather. 

While you can use all the above materials to make a knife handle, wood still stands out from the rest. A wooden handle has the perfect combination of class, durability, style, and elegance you’re looking for to beautify your knife. 

The main options for a wooden handle include softwood, stabilized wood, and hardwood. However, if you want durability and style for your wooden handle, hardwood is the best choice. 

Among the best wood for your knife handle are walnut, birch laminates, amboyna burl, oak, rosewood, bocote, cocobolo, ebony, and bloodwood satine. 

  1. The best color option 

When customizing your knife, you can decide to make it as colorful as you wish. Some people tend to maintain the color of the wooden handle they chose, while others prefer painting over these handles. 

Either choice is good. If you choose to color your knife handle, make sure the color you go for exactly what you want your knife to say about you. Most of the knife custom dealers online can help you choose the ideal color for your knife. 

It doesn’t matter whether you know the name of the color or not. All that is expected of you is to combine all the colors you’d wish to have on your knife through a ‘Color Mix,’ and you’ll get exactly that. 

  1. The imagery of your choice 

When beautifying your knife, you can always add a picture of your choice to the mix. This picture could be a logo, anime, cartoon, or any other drawing depending on your preference. 

Like the color options, online custom dealers for knives give you the freedom to attach any picture of your choice when ordering a customized knife. The picture doesn’t have to be limited to cartoons, logos, and anime. 

You can even pick a picture of a loved one, your favorite sportsman, or even your favorite sports team. The essence of an image on your knife is to help give your knife a more personalized touch with something that you identify with. 

  1. Engravings and tattoos 

Another way to add a personal touch to your knife is by engraving or tattooing it. Engravings are most popular among most people because they’re a bit simpler and portray a direct message. 

An engraving on your knife can either be anything you want from a name, a funny phrase you relate with, or even a date or time. It’s important to note that unique engravings are often short and precise to put the intended meaning across a lot easier. 

Tattoos, on the other hand, are different and are usually meant as art. The knife gurus at Deejo.com/en/ are known to create some of the best tattoos you can get on any type or shape of a knife. People get to tattoo their favorite animal or any other drawing they can, so the only limit is really your imagination. 

If you’re going to get somebody to engrave or tattoo your knife, you might notice that these services vary in price. This is because tattoos usually take a lot of time, resources, and skill to execute. On the other hand, engravings are usually short and precise and don’t require sophisticated tools to execute. 

  1. Beautiful curves 

Another common way people use to beautify their knives is by curving them to get the best shape possible. However, it’s important to ensure that the shape and the extent of the curves you go for match the size of the knife. 

Short knives usually look better with thicker curves, while longer knives are best with simple but noticeable curves. Still, these aren’t really rules, as the beauty is in the eye of the beholder. 

Conclusion 

Depending on your budget, there are many customization ideas out there you can try on your knives. However, before you decide what ideas you’ll apply, it’s better to research the ones that are ideal for your type of knives.
