Father’s Day is coming up again, so starts the quest for something useful, unique, or memorable as a gift for Dad. He may already have a little bit of everything and even have his EDC dialed in, but nothing quite adds to a collection like a personalized piece of gear. A customized and one-of-a-kind knife is one he’ll appreciate and won’t soon forget. Thankfully, lifestyle and design knife brand Deejo makes all that easy and accessible with knives that you can design and get through its online platform, MyDeejo. On it, you’ll find a lot of options and choices for how you could customize Dad’s one-of-a-kind Deejo knife, turning an everyday carry staple into a unique and personalized heirloom.
Customizing a knife for your dad starts with an easy online interface. Every option you select gets reflected onto a 3D rendering of the Deejo knife, letting you preview changes and your final design. There are five different ways to customize Dad’s knife, and the first choice to make is how large you want your customized knife to be. Depending on how you think Dad will carry or use this knife, you can choose from the three sizes available, labeled 15g, 27g, and 39g—corresponding to their weight—with each one measuring 7cm, 9cm, and 11cm when closed, respectively. These different sizes have you covered, from primary EDC blade to backup knife to letter opener for his desk.
Next, you choose between three finishes for the tough and corrosion-resistant 420 stainless steel used in the knife’s blade. A classic mirror finish makes for a flashier aesthetic, but you can also go for something more subdued with the grey and black titanium options. The finish extends beyond the blade and into the knife’s lightweight and skeletonized handle frame, which integrates the liner lock mechanism for when the knife is in use.
On the blade, Deejo gives you the option of etching a decorative “tattoo” design, letting you pick from over 50 options, from mandala and art deco patterns to topographic maps and nature-themed motifs. Finding one that aligns with Dad’s passions with so many designs readily available won’t be too difficult. Whether he’s into watches, hunting, or sailing, tattooing the blade with his favorite hobby will make this gift even more special. Most cover a substantial part of the blade and create a distinct aesthetic for the knife combined with your choice of finish.
The handle scales that protect the blade’s edge when retracted can also be customized to complement or contrast your previous finishes and marking choices. Here you have the option of different types of wood, including Juniper Wood, Ebony, Coral Wood, and others, or you can go with Composite Scales displaying Carbon Fiber weave or a polished Turtle Shell look.
You can also engrave Dad’s name or a short dedication onto the handle, making for a truly memorable gift. You can always play it safe and go with Father’s Day-themed engravings like “World’s Best Dad,” “We Love You Dad,” or something similar, or get creative and add a meaningful quote. Whichever way you decide to go, one thing is for sure: no one else will have a knife like the one you make.
When you’re all done with your choices, you can click a button to see how your design looks when the knife is closed and another to share your concept design on social media, giving your friends or even Dad a preview before you fully commit to your plan. It usually takes Deejo five business days minimum to build and ship the knife when you do. Every Deejo knife ships from France, so make sure to get your design finalized with enough time to allow Deejo to deliver your knife before Father’s Day, especially if you add options like a sheath or sharpener. With so many ways to customize this knife, there’s a Deejo design just right for Dad. Build one up now by checking out the link to MyDeejo below.
