At Mackay Blades, craftsmanship is more than skill

– it’s tradition, discipline, and pride in every piece we make.


Founded by Jack Mackay, a young South Australian craftsman with a passion for creating unique handmade knives, Mackay Blades brings together timeless design with precision detailing. Jack specialises in hand-forged blades and engraving guards and bolsters, producing knives that are both functional and works of art.

Jack’s father, Tony Mackay, a veteran and former Artificer Sergeant Major in the Australian Army, provides guidance and support, bringing decades of Armament engineering experience. Together, we share a commitment to quality, durability, and authenticity.

Our knives are inspired by traditional, tactical, gentleman’s, and next-generation styles – each designed to balance performance with aesthetic appeal. Every blade is crafted to be unique, built to last, and made to be treasured.

Whether you are a collector, outdoorsman, or simply appreciate the art of fine craftsmanship, Mackay Blades offers knives that stand apart.

IT IS UNLAWFUL TO SELL KNIVES TO PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF 18 YEARS IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

PERSONS MAY BE REQUIRED TO PRODUCE EVIDENCE OF AGE WHEN MAKING A PURCHASE.
