Reha knife craft is an important craft form of Kutch region of Gujarat state, India.
This craft has seen no major design intervention in the past and nor has been able to sustain itself well in the current market scenario.

The craft has been known in the past for its forging technique to make cutlery tools, Knifes, agrarian equipment, swords and armories which served the local community and royal families well and had been much appreciated. But with changing time and needs the craft somewhere lacked behind in transforming itself to meet the ongoing expectations.

This Project aims to revive this centuries old craft by building a knowledge base and design repertoire of the artisans to have a sustainable income and growth. The result was a set of six Handmade Professional Chef and Domestic Kitchen Knives.
