hunters

All-rounder. Bush, bench, the boot of the ute.

A general-purpose fixed blade, long enough to break down a deer and short enough to ride a belt all day. The one to buy if you're only buying one.

Tough Stonewashed N690 SteelHandmade

skinners

Curved belly. Built for hide work.

A pronounced upswept belly that does the cape work without piercing the hide. Shorter, slightly heavier in the hand. Pairs with a hunter, doesn't replace it.

Australian Hardwoodsfield dressing

Bush Craft

Strong tip. Great for fine work.

A lowered point keeps the tip out of the gut wall and gives you control for fine cuts. Great for stalkers, EDC and anyone who wants a do-everything blade with less aggressive geometry.

Knives we'd happily take for a week up in the high country, on the back of a quad, or through scrub thick enough to lose a dog in.

HOW WE MAKE KNIVES

MADE BY HAND. MADE TO LAST.

We heat treat our blades in a laboratory environment to get the most out of each steel, and run cryo treatments on the steels that benefit from it. It's not the fastest way to do things, but it's the right way. All of our handles are handmade, start to finish. No shortcuts.

We use a mix of steels depending on the model — N690, AEB-L, Elmax, MagnaCut, 1084, Damascus, 12C27. Each one chosen for the job the knife needs to do. Not the cheapest. Not always the fastest. The right steel for the job, built to last.

VISIT THE WORKSHOP STORY

From a small workshop on the NSW coast

Made by hand. Made to last.

Every Iron Gate knife is built in our workshop in Anna Bay, NSW the same town it's been for years. We're a small team. We make a small number of knives each week. We do it properly.

The handles are real materials deer antler, abalone shell, blackwood, paua. The sheaths are kydex, fitted to the blade. The lifetime backing is real too.
