Handmade custom knives from Germany
I am Andreas Behringer from Simply Knives. I am a custom knife maker from Germany. I make different styles of knives from chefs knives, outdoor and hunting knives to specialized knives for artisans. This site tells my story of how I started into custom knife making, my failures, my success, and my progress.
It took me a very long time to finish my last two projects. I had another Furutsu and a Spring Folder in my books and struggled to finish them.
This project caught me as soon as I understood what the goal was. A father contacted me with the idea to build a custom-designed Bowie knife for the eighteenth birthday of his son. With the idea that it will become a future family heirloom.
With this Kopis knife build, I aimed for: “let’s try what I can do at max without limits” and trying all the stuff I had on my list for future builds.
I make Custom Knives, Chefs Knives, Cooking Knives, Kitchen Knives, Hunting Knives, Tool Knives, Artisan Knives, Outdoor Knives, Bushcraft Knives, Special Knives, Personal Knives, Every Day Carry (EDC) Knives, Collector Knives, and so on
