Our Friends

At Noblie, custom knife work isn’t limited to collector pieces. The workshop also crafts bespoke blades for stage and screen — everything from historically accurate weapons to fully functional props. One commission involved an Ottoman-style dagger made for a period TV series. We later cranked out a tight batch of folders for a WWII-submarine flick—ground, pinned, and finished entirely by hand. This kind of handmade craftsmanship keeps the props team happy while still feeling like the real steel any collector would respect. For those interested in one-of-a-kind pieces, check out our collection of unique custom knives that bridge the gap between performance and artistry.
