Four lines, in operation.

A partnership built on friendship and curiosity. MCx Hangler began with one vision: bring two of Europe's most innovative steels together in a single knife — Apex Ultra, the carbon steel Tobias created with Marco Guldimann and Larrin Thomas, clad in Swedish Damasteel. It's a combination we keep returning to, edition after edition, each one refining the last and pushing the limits of what these two steels can become together. An evolving line, made in limited numbers — join the waitlist to secure a future allocation.

Two great steels, one relentless pursuit

Where old craft meets new metallurgy. Krichbaum × Johnsson came together organically — sparked by the kitchen knife community's love of our MCx work and a request for a piece built around Damasteel's Björkmans Twist. It's a collaboration of shared instinct: rare timbers, unique carbon and PM stainless steels, and clean, organic designs where natural texture and polished precision live side by side. The first release is a Björkmans Twist gyuto on a stacked birchbark and stainless takedown rokkaku hanmaru handle — rustic and refined in one.

Tradition and modern metallurgy, forged into one.

Some knives you can feel were made by someone who loves the work. That's the MCx Krichbaum line. We've known Simon Krichbaum since he was an apprentice under Martin Huber, and the friendship is half the reason these knives exist — he's a big-hearted, endlessly creative maker with the rare discipline to match his ambition. His signature profile and geometry do the heavy lifting, ergonomics and performance already dialled in, premium steels as standard. So the fun part — the part we obsess over together — is the handle, the cladding, the finish. Simple, premium, pragmatic, and made for the pure joy of cooking.

Premium and pragmatic, made with heart.

Performance first. Everything else follows. That's the agreement behind this line — a collaboration of three, built on a shared obsession with how a knife cuts and how it's made, where beauty matters but always comes second to performance and build quality. The precision of a Swiss watch, made to last generations. A takedown construction that disassembles in your hands, every part precise, nothing decorative for its own sake. This level of quality is rare, and we make it in limited editions only. New editions are released in limited numbers — join the waitlist to secure a future allocation.
