“EXCELLENCE IS DOING ORDINARY THINGS EXTRAORDINARILY WELL”
Say goodbye to your old, dull kitchen knives because, from now on, your cooking experiences will never be the same. NorthernKnife has developed a unique formula to create the sharpest and most versatile knives on the market at an unbeatable price.
HOW ARE YOUR KNIVES MADE?
Developed hundreds of years ago and perfected over time, the technique used to manufacture your NorthernKnife is unique. The result of titanic manufacturing work, this technique has been passed down from generation to generation.
In steel, the percentage of carbon determines its hardness—more carbon results in a harder knife and a sharper blade, less carbon produces a more solid edge and flexible blade. Therefore, it is necessary to find the perfect combination to balance the steel’s hardness (and, therefore, the sharpness of the blade) and the edge’s solidity (and, therefore, the blade’s flexibility).
“THE PERFECT COMBINATION BETWEEN SHARPNESS, STURDINESS & HARDNESS”
Thus, our blacksmiths apply a strict and ultra-meticulous metal-stripping protocol. By creating two steel blocks and stretching them, the blacksmith draws out the impurities. This makes it possible to homogenize the carbon so that your knife lasts over time and obtain a perfect combination of the hardness of the steel and the solidity of the blade. This results in a very sharp, flexible knife that’s solid at the same time.

This technique allows us to use higher-quality steel by removing impurities and homogenizing the carbon. Your knife is then assembled by hand to make it an actual work of art.
Thanks to this ultra-complex process, Northern’s blades are sharper, more flexible, and more versatile than any other similar knives on the market.
