Press Knives

What is a Press Knife?

Like a cookie cutter in an industrial form, Press Knives are formed from pre-sharpened steel bent into any required shape.

Our double-sided knives mean you can make a left and right cuts and have them exactly the same and our serrated edge knives are suited for all textiles. We fit backing plates or bracing to hold it’s shape or fitted to hold punches where they need to be.

  • Textiles – clothing, household, protective gear

Do you have an old press knife?

If you have a press knife that is in need of some TLC the team at PPK can, in most cases, refurbish the steel so your production can run smoothly again. We aim to output all press knife refurbishments in under a week to minimise production downtime for your business.
