Handmade in Switzerland, awarded with international Design prizes, used in the world’s leading restaurants – these are facts about the product line of the Swiss company Sknife. The knife experts supply the Swiss market and, due to international collaborations and sponsoring, the top gastronomy in all over the world with its wide product range of excellent quality knives.
From steak to pocket knife
Sknife’s portfolio comprises steak knives, table knives, steak forks, cheese knives, dry meat knives, oyster knives as well as knife accessories. All of the high quality knives are forged in Emmental, Switzerland and manufactured entirely by hand in the Sknife factory in Biel. The steak knife for example is made of surgical steel and therewith has a hardness of 58 HRC as well as a high corrosion resistance. The surgical steel blades are available for the swiss table knives, cheese knives, dry meat and oyster knives as well. A speciality is the Swiss damask knife. Made of damask steel that consists of over 1000 layers and a black coloured ash handle, this knife is a masterpiece in the product line of Sknife. Each damask knife is handmade in Biel. The steak knives are available as damask knives as well and harmonise perfectly with the damask steak fork. Sknife is the only manufacturer worldwide who produces such kind of forks in small series. Besides the ash wood handle, the knives are equipped with local walnut wood which give them an aesthetic look.
Pocket knives are part of the product line as well: handcrafted with high-tech ceramics and components from the watch industry, these beautiful knives are masterpieces of craftsmanship and a fascination for every knife lover.
Form follows function
This is the motto of Sknife. In cooperation with knife specialists and the first class cuisine, a design of flowing transitions with the centre of gravity widely in the front was developed to allow an ergonomic handling and a cut surface that has no contact to the surface. With their straight shapes and natural materials, the knives from Sknife have, each one, their own style. The high emotion emanating from the products combined with the artisanal perfection have led to the winning of several design awards such as Red Dot Design Award.
Sustainability and naturalness play an important role for the company, the packaging of the knives are made of sunburnt waste wood from Switzerland. The natural paperboard is uncoated; the accessories like the knife block are made of local oak wood.
International commitment
Sknife supports culinary talents like the Swiss culinary junior national team and cooking competitions like the Bocuse d’Or. As a preferred supplier of Swiss deluxe hotels the company holds partnerships with different restaurants worldwide. Due to an international network of distributors, Sknife products are available worldwide.
