Khalsa Kirpans

The Exceptional Handmade Knives, Swords
and Kirpans of Jot Singh Khalsa

Adi Shakti

Welcome to Khalsa Kirpans. “Kirpan” /keér pahn/ literally means “hand of mercy.” It is a Punjabi (Indian) word for “knife” or “dagger,” that connotes a philosophy of respect for martial arts and weapons, not as a vehicle of aggression but as a means of defending the defenseless.
Read more about the kirpan – and its noble and inspired role within the Sikh religion.

My name is Jot Singh Khalsa. Since 1978, I’ve been creating unique edged tools and weapons for enthusiasts and collectors all over the world. My knives and swords have been featured on book covers, magazine covers, in museum exhibitions and in print media published in 7 languages. They are award winners at knife shows throughout the USA and in Europe.

Travelling regularly, I offer my work for sale at select handmade knife shows in North America, Europe, occasionally Asia, and now through this website. Pieces like any of those you see here can be made on request. Some are available for immediate purchase.

It is with great pleasure that I present to you the finest in handmade knives, swords and Kirpans. Please contact me with any questions you might have.
