Okapi Knives
Okapi Knives traces its origins back over a century to Solingen, Germany—often called the “City of Blades.” In the late 1980s, Okapi South Africa purchased the trademark and began manufacturing these iconic knives in South Africa. Famous for their rugged utility, these knives became a staple, even carried by Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones. In 2019, Okapi was acquired by Lasher Tools, continuing its legacy of producing high-quality, durable knives in South Africa.
