Socotran knives

Сокотрийский нож

The Socotrans prefer using self-made knives from Hadiboh.

Practically every one of the Socotrans uses self-made knives from Hadiboh. These knives are handy for butchering, harvesting frankincense or Dragon’s Blood, or can be even used in such a way.

We found a blacksmith and shot the whole manufacturing process of the knife ordered by Vladimir for himself.
