Too good not to use

These Knives are Made for Cutting ♪

As exquisite as it is, you'd be forgiven for not wanting to use a Kappeller like an ordinary knife. But that would be a waste, for a Kappeller's beauty is equalled only by its utility. Unlike mass-produced products, our knives are made to exacting specifications. We fine-tune the interplay of steel, cutting angle, and heat treatment to create a knife with a purpose—your purpose. Whether you seek a knife for the hunt, the kitchen, or the display case, we can provide you with a custom solution.

In former times in Central Europe, a knife was considered an heirloom, a treasure to be passed down from generation to generation. By creating knives worthy of being cherished, I hope to revive this tradition.

I want you to use your knife as often as possible. For there's nothing more delightful than to see an old, well-used knife and its patina and hear the stories of what it has witnessed in its life. You can bring your Kappeller knife to us any time for sharpening — and for sharing your stories.
