So this little lady arrived today, I’m so proud of my beautiful wife @ciaracampbellceramics for bringing this miracle into the world. Apologies to everyone with current orders waiting to be finished but my wife and daughter are going to be my priority for ever, and orders are going to have to take a back seat for a few weeks. I will continue to do my upmost to get your knives finished and shipped ASAP. #broc #brocknives #brocforge #newborn #daughter #priorties #ciaracampbellceramics

Massive thanks to everyone that attended the @living_2_learn gathering at @larchhill_scoutcentre over the weekend. It was great to catch up with old friends and meet many new ones. One of the many highlights of the weekend was the talk from Dave Canterbury from @pathfindersurvival on the 5 C’s and having him drop by my stall for a look at my knives. Special thanks to the other L2L admins @joe_l2l @collyscraftcornerl2l @will.coleman17 @markopolo_l2l @karloflaherty @redkiteleatherworks @fieldcraft_fieldsteel @aidan_l2l @wacker1963 @padraigcroke , Andy and Conor for making this an event to remember, roll on next year.

just had my fourth collaboration knife with davie finished and couldn't be happier. I have been a customer of BROC knives since the early days and what keeps me coming back is the fact he never sits still and every knife he makes he pushes further on. A1 customer service and follow up.

User

You will not be disappointed with any product from Broc. Davie is a pleasure to deal with and the customer service is first class. The products were beyond what I expected quality wise & I will be doing business again.

User

Top quality work from handle to tip, could not be happier! outstanding heat treatment it really holds a fine edge, razor sharp out of the box. wont be my last knife from broc, thanks again!

User

Stepped into the world, of custom knives for the first time. In all honesty I couldn't be happier, all along the process I truly felt like a partner not only a customer. Regular updates and photos all through the process. Always willing to answer my questions, and make changes for me on the go. Excellent experience, finished knife absolutely breathtaking, coupled with amazing leather work showing an eye for quality and finish. I would have no hesitation in recommending Broc, to anyone looking for that something special in a knife.

User

My custom Broc knives necker arrived today and I am absolutely blown away the craftsmanship is amazing and it came very nicely packaged in a presentation box very happy man today :) I highly recommend getting a Broc knives blade and Davie is a great guy to deal with :)

User

Lady's and gentlemen received my friction folder by Broc knives, I don't know them personally but credit where it's due. I love it! Its uk legal so can even come with me on short bimbles and Broc were an absolute pleasure to do business with loads of communication, fantastic workmanship as you can see great presentation I could not be happier and would definitely recommend them to anyone.

User

Just got my bushcraft knife made by Davie at Broc knives, it arrived beautifully presented in a wooden box, with earthy smells of wood and leather and the finished product is more than I could have hoped for. Much credit due for their high level of mastery and dedication to craftsmanship, his tools will surely be a lifetime companion for you.

Just before Christmas I asked Davie to make me a forester knife. I knew nothing about Davie or BROC knives but I liked the look of his work and he was an Northern Irish lad trying to start something special with hand made knives with locally sourced woods for scales, competing against the myriad of uk and European knife makers.I had a number of high end bushcraft knives and I wanted something a little different. The other thing I wanted was a left handed sheath. Something that other knife makers surprisingly were not able to offer me despite the huge cost of their knives.



The whole process was totally inclusive and transparent. Davie facilitated my choice of scales, liners, etching and personalising the blade, matching the Colour stitching on the sheath to the liners on the knife. Each day he took me through the process with pictures and updates from grinding the bevels to heat treating the steal to stabilising the wooden scales. It was an education in itself.

The project got delayed when I asked for mosaic pins... No problem....... Davie sent me a list of suppliers , pick what I wanted and he would order. The end product was not only totally unique, I almost felt I had helped make it myself I had been so involved I the process.



It was hand delivered to me in Dublin by Davie, who was anxious to ensure I was totally happy with the the finished product. To be honest it exceeded all my expectations.

I have many quality knives, Julius Petterson, Steven wade Cox, Enzo,Wrights of Sheffield, and now BROC by Davie Crawford. It deserves to be up there with the best of them.

I recently had it with me for a week in arctic Sweden, and I have to say it never left my side, it performed faultlessly. It is such an integral part of bushcraft it can almost be taken for granted ...it is simply the most important piece of kit you need in my opinion.

There are lots of very good quality cheap bushcraft knives on the market, Mora kniv for example, and they're great if your starting off your journey in Bushcraft.....but if you want something a little special, something specific to you, a knife you can trust because you know how. , when , with what and by whom it was made, then BROC should be your first port of call. Superior craftsmanship at reasonable prices, for a knife that will last many generations.

You won't regret it.

I was lucky enough to commission a Horseman and a Lagom. After a long discussion with Davie to establish the options that he could do, my knives were ordered. 3 months later they were ready. Now to some people this may seem like a long time, But in the world of handmade custom knives this is quick, really quick.

When they arrived the packaging was outstanding and it just got better when I opened the boxes to find that each knife was packed in its own wooden case. The knifes them selfs are perfect, the fit and finish on them is amazing. And of course they are razor sharp. It doesn't end there Davie also makes the sheaths for his knife. They too are perfect, and they even smell gorgeous.

If you get the opportunity to order a knife from Broc you won't be disappointed

User

I just received my Horsemen and I'm beyond impressed with the quality and presentation of this knife!! It has a feeling of heft and trust that I look for in a woods blade. I would highly recommend BROC Knives!!!!

User

I honestly could not be happier with my forest. I must have been a torture of a client to work with but Davie was great to work with, took all my ideas on and made them work into this beauty of a knife. 5 stars doesnt cut it

User

I have the Horseman knife and love it. The fit and finish is amazing! And the packaging is second to none! This knife is a beast, and meant for real field use. The customer service is awesome and if you have any questions at all they are quickly answered. I'm so very pleased. I'm sure I'll be ordering another model soon.

User

I have the "Forest" model and it is one heck of a knife. Davie Crawford, the owner of BROC Knives is a Master in the knife making trade. I couldn't be more happy with my knife. The knife I have will not be the last BROC knife I own.....in fact, Mr. Crawford is working on a knife of my design as I write this. My entire experience has been a pleasure. I highly recommend Mr. Davie Crawford and his top quality knives.

User

I got my neck knife for my 40th and it's a joy to use . Fits perfect in my hand and is so well made . I love it . Thanks for a great knife

User

I am the proud owner of 3 knives from Broc. The craftsmanship and build quality are second to none. Davie's attention to detail makes these blades truly functional art work. Over the course of blade history, one can see many standards set. I believe given time and exposure, Broc Knives will be a standard quality others are compared to.

User

I am now the very proud owner a a BROC forest model. The quality and attention to detail from packaging to point is outstanding to say the least. Davie is a gentleman to deal with and I will definitely be a repeat customer. Thanks again ��

User

Highly recommend Broc Knives. Friendly, personal, professional experience from start to finish. I just received my custom Broc Nessmuk with Yew scales and a custom leather sheath. Delivered and presented in a presentation box with information on the knife included on cards inside. I got the knife I wanted. Thanks Davie 🖒🖒🖒🖒🖒

User

Got my hands on the broc neck knife have to say it's awsome. This knife is now my every day carry. I have used it this morning and it performed to perfection. The knife is not only great to use but awsome to look at. Davie is a talented local guy that is moving in the right direction with his knifes I wish him all the best in the future and look forward to taking this little beauty on every trip I go on.

User

Davie's work is beyond excellent. It is art living inside a tough tool. Precision and ridiculous attention to detail. When you have a Broc Knife on you, you never have to worry about what you need to do. It is knife perfection in every way. And Davie is a mighty good man on top of it all. Highly recommend anything Davie makes.
