The Story
Afghanistan, a beautiful country with a challenging past and uncertain future. Life can be extremely difficult. Who can help them, who will go?
At Baba Knives, we're not just creating high-quality, handmade knives - we're transforming lives. Our knives are named after the mountains that represent strength, and "Baba", meaning daddy or papa in Farsi, represents the strong father figures we strive to help men become. Through our Afghanistan based drug rehabilitation program, we take men who were once discarded and useless, and help transform them into strong, resilient individuals with the skills and character to lead fulfilling lives.
​
Our knives serve as a powerful symbol of transformation - like the metal that is forged in the fire of our program, our men are sharpened and refined, becoming strong and resilient leaders. Every knife we create is made by the men in our center, a testament to their hard work and dedication to creating something beautiful. Like the knives that we build, these men didn't just appear as the strength they represent today. They've been refined, molded, and polished and something beautiful and strong was made from something that was once raw, broken, and unfinished.

The Knives
The Program
At Baba Knives, we believe that true transformation starts from within. That's why our drug rehabilitation program is designed to help men overcome addiction, build character, and become leaders in their own right. Through our program, we provide the tools and resources necessary for men to transform their lives and reach their full potential. And just like the knives we create, our program is built on a foundation of hard work, dedication, and a commitment to excellence. When your life as an addict begins to be forged correctly, it becomes useful.
​
We're proud of the men who have completed our program and gone on to lead fulfilling lives. They are a testament to the power of transformation, and we're honored to have played a role in their journey.
