Egonomic design knives

28 January 2012 - 04:12 PM

For the knife makers, was this a forged technique or stock removal technique? (grin)


The ergonomic design for the Meeting knives was inspired by the Fibonacci Sequence, using the width of an average hand as a starting point. Having patterns in nature, this proportional mathematical formula is used widely in architecture and other fields.

It won first prize in the 5th European Cutlery Design Award (Bourse Européenne de la Création Coutelière) in 2006 (cached), for its innovativeness, seemingly sculpted from one piece of stainless steel, and for its functionality.
