Knife Blades

In addition to outdoor and survival knives, you can also get separate knife blades at the online shop of Meister Messer, which you can use for building your own custom knife or as a replacement blade. The blade is the heart of every knife and determines its quality, functionality, and durability. The following guide illustrates what you should pay attention to when buying knife blades.

Knife blades for the individual production of your dream knife

If you want to build a knife from scratch, choosing the right blade is the first step towards a perfect end product. The knife blades offered on Meister Messer are already pre-sharpened, which significantly simplifies the knife-making process. You don't have to sharpen or work on the blades.

Similarly, high-quality replacement blades can breathe new life into your old favorite knife. If you want to replace an old, dull blade, you will need a version that matches the cutting tool. Replacement blades are usually designed for specific models or special series, so they cannot be combined with all handle scales.

From classic to exotic: The different types of knife blades

In the world of knives, there is an impressive variety of blade shapes that have been developed for specific applications. The range extends from traditional designs to modern interpretations. The following overview illustrates the characteristics of common knife blade shapes:

• Standard form: In the classic version, the back of the knife blade and the cutting edge are usually straight or approximately straight, while the belly of the knife is round. Corresponding blades are considered versatile all-rounders.
• Drop Point: Knives with Drop Point blades are equipped with a gently sloping, robust tip. The blade shape offers great handling and is therefore ideal for precise cuts. Therefore, Drop Point knife blades are particularly popular among hunters.
• Clip Point: Especially Bowie knives often feature a Clip Point blade. This type of blade has a pronounced point and a cutting edge that slopes slightly towards the tip, allowing for very controlled handling of the knife.
• Spear Point: This type of blade represents a special form of the Drop Point blade, in which the upper cutting edge is completely ground off. This improves the weight distribution and therefore the handling. Spear Point blades are particularly used in the field of outdoor and survival knives.
• Tanto: Knives with Tanto blades are inspired by the design of Japanese swords and equipped with an extremely sturdy tip located at the blade's spine. For this reason, Tanto knives are considered effective stabbing weapons, primarily used as tactical and combat knives.
• Dagger: Dagger blades have a symmetrical structure and feature two sharp cutting edges. The tip is located exactly in the middle between the back and belly of the blade. Dagger blades are often found in combat and throwing knives.
• Skinner: This blade shape was specially designed for skinning animals. Since the blade is convex, the belly of the blade is particularly large. The tip of the knife is located above the spine of the blade.

Buy knife blades: Tips for buying blades

If you are looking for a replacement blade for a knife, you just need to make sure that it is compatible with the corresponding model. If you want to build a knife yourself, it is important to consider its suitability for the intended purpose and to choose a knife blade that suits your personal needs. For outdoor and survival knives, for example, a rust-resistant blade that can withstand damp weather is recommended.

Investing in high-quality knife blades is also worthwhile - both in terms of performance and durability.
