Welcome to Windmühlenmesser - your partner for handmade knives for over 150 years. In our knife factory in Solingen - and only there - we handcraft high-quality knives and cutlery using traditional craft methods. Our knives are valued by professional chefs and knife lovers for their sharpness, durability and aesthetics.

The craft at Windmühlenmesser - Handmade in Germany
The knife production at Windmühlenmesser combines traditional craftsmanship and high-quality materials. The handles of our knives are made from local wood or POM plastic, while the knife steel is made from either non-stainless carbon steel or chrome-molybdenum-vanadium steel. But what makes our knives truly unique is the indispensable role of the human hand. This is irreplaceable for many processes. Hardly any tool is more flexible, more adaptive and more sensitive than the human hand, especially when it comes to making fine and extraordinary knives. Our knives go through more than 70 steps by hand: the blades are ground and pressed, mounted on the handles, these are finely shaped and polished to a matt finish, then the blade is finally sharpened for maximum sharpness.
