sknife Tableknife Cutlery www.sknife.com Six years ago, sknife delivered its first steak knife. The knife was developed in close collaboration with top chefs who were looking for a Swiss product in highest quality and perfection. The sknife cutlery made of novel surgical steel has a four times higher corrosion resistance and high hardness of 58 HRC. The knives as well as the steak forks are forged in Emmental and manufactured entirely by hand in the sknife knife manufactory in Biel. The steak cutlery comes with handles made of stabilized walnut or ash wood. These days the 20,000th sknife knife was produced in the manufactory in Biel. The company is particularly proud that many of the knives are endorsed in the world’s best restaurants with over 70 Michelin Stars and were awarded with three international design prizes.
