Why Arctic Caveman?
We believe in prime quality, which is why we only sell carefully selected, sustainably manufactured products. Our first product line is handmade chef’s knives and kitchen supplies made in Germany.
Quality
Quality starts with the raw material. FELIX only uses premium raw materials such as high-alloyed X50 CrMoV15 chromium molybdenum vanadium steel, Japanese VG10 multi-layer Damascus steel or X65 CR13 razor blade steel. The blades are drop-forged in one piece and some are stamped, depending on the design of the knife. Due to the homogenous and compact grain structure of the steel’s microstructure all the blades guarantee flexibility, resistance to corrosion and great edge retention.
Quality is precise workmanship. FELIX traditionally produces knives by hand. A knife from Felix goes through about 45 different procedures before it will leave the factory. Every single step consists of centuries-old Solingen knowledge, craftsmanship and a lot of skill. It is also a case of experience, a good eye, precision, care and love of detail.
One part of the quality is also the design. How the knife is shaped, how does it fit your hand, the balance, the weight and how if feels when cutting. When you pick up one of our handmade German knifes you will immediately feel the quality.
