HIPPEKNIEP small grenadilla
The original Hippekniep (goat knife) pocket knife from OTTER is a simple and robust knife. Rough handling and tough jobs like leverage work caused the blades of the classic predecessor models to loosen. A sturdier solution had to be developed: the rivet holding the blade firmly in position now comes equipped with a large semi-circular rivet in a broad casing. When needed, the rivet can simply be hammered in deeper if the blade begins to loosen after extensive use. This knife is our small Hippekniep. Please note: We sell our knives with grenadilla scales only within Germany and the EU. Our Grenadilla knife sheaths are from the old stock before the listing in the EC Regulation No. 338/97 took place on 02.01.2017.

The bolsters, plates and rivets are made of brass, as is the honeycomb inlay with the image of a bee. The brass harmonises very well with the different woods. We have also used the unusual wood species sea buckthorn for this special knife. It is a native wood with a beautiful grain that provides the handle scales for our knives. The beekeeper's knife is only available with a stainless steel blade. €3 from every knife sold will be donated to the bee training centre in Witten Hohenstein. Personalised knives cannot be exchanged!

OTTER "Bergmann"
An Ode to the Heritage of the Bergisches Land and Beyond The OTTER "Bergmann" combines in its design the artisanal traditions and innovations of the regions around Solingen and is the perfect everyday companion The Bergmann is inspired by one of the very first knives from the house of OTTER, the Webermesser. The carbon blade with its very fine tip points to the original application area in the textile and ribbon weaving industries of the Bergisches Land. The compact and rounded handle made of ebony with its black color is a reference point to the coal of the Ruhr area. The copper structures in the bolsters made of Fat Carbon resemble formations in coal seams. These memories of the diverse roots of the region, from which OTTER knives originate, come together in this, completely handcrafted knife from Germany's city of blades, Solingen. In the election for "Knife of the Year 2025" by MESSER MAGAZIN in the folding knife category, the Bergmann took 1st place. At the IWA Knife Award 2024, the Bergmann was awarded 2nd place in the "Classics" category.
