As the name suggests, the Willumsen Copenhagen company comes from Denmark, where it was founded in 1998 by the experienced knife designer Mikkel Willumsen. And it is knives that Willumsen specializes in. Whether it's folding knives, fixed-blade knives, chef's knives or balisongs (butterfly knives), you can be sure that you can always rely on Willumsen knives.
Before we start listing products for outdoor enthusiasts (but not only them), we allow ourselves a short detour into a completely different area. At home in Denmark, but not only there, the famous chef's knives are not only used by consumers at home, but also by the chefs of the best restaurants.
The best companies are looking for them, for example, in the United States. And Danish television also chooses them for their cooking shows.
Willumsen Copenhagen uses a concept it calls Urban Tactical for its outdoor knives. It is a combination of classic design with modern tactical features of the knife. Thanks to high-quality steel in thick layers and high functionality, Willumsen knives can be considered a kind of works of art, but they are also practically usable.
With proper care, Willumsen Copenhagen knives can last you a lifetime, and even in today's consumer age, they are still products that you can one day pass down to your son. In addition to a high level of quality, you also get a timeless design that simply does not age.
However, Mikkel Willumsen does not make all his knives himself. Many models are the result of collaboration with other companies and personalities who are a household name in their field. The brands Kansept Knives, Lansky Sharpeners and United Cutlery or Jim Skelton are worth mentioning.
We could find more jewels among Willumsen knives, but in the end, the Chibs folding knife won as the top model, which combines a unique Scandinavian design with high reliability and is also made in Denmark. The premium blade made of Sandvik stainless steel has maximum sharpness and a truly above-average lifespan. Thanks to the ergonomic handle, the Chibs folding knife is held firmly and stably by the user.
