Germany has a rich tradition of metalwork and cutlery that dates back centuries. Cities like Solingen—often referred to as the "City of Blades"—have been producing knives, swords, and scissors since the Middle Ages. Solingen is still home to many of the most famous German knife manufacturers. The commitment to quality and innovation in German knife making has been passed down through generations, combining traditional forging methods with modern engineering to produce blades of exceptional quality.
