In the Thai-Burma War of the 1800's, blacksmiths forged swords. After the war, they made knives, silverware and tools. A whole community is involved in a different part of the steel forging process! When the Burmese invaded Ayutthaya, the Aranyik village started making swords for the Thai resistance forces. Famed for their superior craftsmanship, the swords have been pared down to top-quality knives, silverware and tools. For over 200 years, these artisans have handcrafted each knife with stainless steel and pradu wood. Families form co-operatives and have skilled workers for each part of the process including forging, grinding, stamping, woodwork, and finishing. Each knife is unique and carries a rich history. Tee has been working with his mother, Yo, since he was a teenager and now manages the teams that make the knives we buy.
