Ironbelly Custom Folder by Lesbar

A closer look at a made-to-order Ironbelly custom folder, built in the Lesbar workshop for left-handed use.

This piece combines complex multi-stage titanium processing, anodized titanium, crystallized titanium, a garnet inlay, and a Damasteel blade with a deep patterned structure.

A rare custom folder where materials, finishing, blade geometry, and left-hand configuration come together in one distinctive build.

Work in progress: relief engraving on a titanium folding knife by Noblie Custom Knives.

The theme is Baron Samedi and Maman Brigitte — translated into metal through portraits, roses, skull details, and deep background texture. At this stage, the main volumes are being shaped before the final fine cuts, contrast, and finishing work.

Titanium is never a simple surface for this kind of engraving, especially with faces and floral details in such a narrow space. But that is also what makes the process interesting.

More progress photos coming soon.

Herman Knives Morpho is one of the standout premium knife releases of 2026.

What makes it interesting is not just that it is a balisong, but how it is built: Grade 5 titanium construction, refined in-house mechanics, premium blade steels, and the kind of finish work Herman collectors already appreciate. Morpho feels like a real new model, not just another variation.

If you follow Herman Knives, this is a release worth watching closely.

Throwback to one of those builds that still feels unreal to look at.

This is an older collaboration piece by Noblie Custom Knives—combining deep hand-cut relief engraving with microscope-level scrimshaw. The engraving isn’t just surface shading: it’s real relief work with depth, undercuts, and texture that makes the animals “stand up” on the steel. On the handle, the scrimshaw is incredibly fine and controlled, created under magnification for maximum detail.

Handle material: mammoth ivory.

Projects like this take a huge amount of time and focus, and honestly, work at this level is getting rarer every year.

Hand-engraving progress shots — titanium knife handle.

Sharing a few real “in-between” stages from the bench: layout, cutting the relief, building the depth, then cleaning the transitions and adding background texture so the portrait reads from different angles. Titanium is a tough material to work, especially when you want smooth shading instead of just bold lines — it’s all tiny depth changes and lots of control.

Hi there!
The first scale for a Noblie Custom Knives folder is done. Hand engraving with gold and copper inlays. To prevent the copper from darkening or oxidizing, I apply a coat of Renaissance wax. It keeps the piece looking great and oxidation-free for many years.

Review: Noblie Custom Knives
Over the past decade, I’ve worked on a variety of custom hunting knives made from Damascus steel. Many of them feature sculpted handles in the shape of animal heads, finished in silver or occasionally gold. Each one is handmade and designed as both a functional tool and a collectible piece.
