Otter-Messer Knives

 Founded in a traditional grinder’s watermill at the Königsmühle in Solingen, Germany, the illustrious name of Otter-Messer dates back to 1840. The symbol of tradition, Otter-Messer knives were established by the Berns brothers who named their brand of classic knives after the indigenous otters found in the riverbanks and streams in the northern parts of Germany. The heritage of Otter-Messer knives has been brought down all these years, still being produced in the most traditional ways by expert knifemakers. The knives are meticulously handcrafted for the finest results. The company was taken over by Frank Rommel in 2011, who has been leading the traditional manufacturing of the knives into the modern era.
