About Our Buddhist Knife
The Tibetan Buddhist Knife is meticulously made on a copper body and brilliant silver plating.

Beyond their mechanical purpose, such knives are frequently admired for their elaborate designs and the spiritual ideals that inspired their creation. The Tibetan Buddhist Knife, whether displayed as a symbol of cultural heritage or used in ceremonial rites, represents a meaningful relationship to Tibetan traditions and beliefs, making it a valuable artifact for both collectors and practitioners.
Introduction to Ritual Dagger
In Tibetan traditions, a Tibetan knife, also called a "phurba" or "kila," has cultural and symbolic meaning. The unique three-sided blade of this ceremonial dagger represents the victory over ignorance, desire, and aversion in Buddhism. Tibetan knives, which are adorned with elaborate carvings and frequently have a tripartite handle that represents different gods, are an essential part of religious rites, ceremonies, and spiritual practices. In addition to their spiritual significance, these knives might have practical uses in daily life, exhibiting in Tibetan communities a combination of deep cultural symbolism and usefulness.
