Handcrafted Damascus Grafting Knives by Tribe3 Steelworks
Each Tribe3 Damascus Grafting Knife is a functional work of art — hand-forged, heat-treated, and individually shaped by Native American artists Brad, Brian, and Blake Wagnon of the Cherokee Nation.
These knives are crafted from Damascus high-carbon steel, offering exceptional edge retention and control for precise bonsai grafting, carving, and fine pruning. The layered steel pattern makes every blade visually unique — no two are alike.

We ship thousands of bonsai trees and supplies each year, and every order is packed with care by our team. Live trees are watered, secured, and packaged to help them arrive safely and ready for their new home.
Live bonsai trees generally ship early in the week, Monday and Tuesday, to reduce time in transit. Tools, pots, soil, fertilizer, and other non-living items usually ship throughout the week.
Bonsai Outlet is a licensed nursery, not just a warehouse. We follow the proper inspection and certification requirements for shipping live plants across state lines. When a state requires additional documentation, such as a nematode certificate or nursery inspection certificate, we work to ensure the proper requirements are met before shipping.
