KNIVO Oy

What they make

According to their website, KNIVO Oy hand-manufactures kitchen knives in Finland, including chef's knives, Eastern-style knives and filleting knives, alongside other kitchen tools such as choppers. Blades are made from hardened 80CrV2 carbon tool steel at 58-60 HRC hardness, finished with a PTFE coating that the company says removes the need for oiling and keeps the blade self-cleaning. Handles are oak, treated with Chinese wood oil, and are fixed to the blade using a polymer-casting technique the company describes as adapted from traditional Finnish puukko knife-making. Products are positioned for both home cooks and professional kitchen use. Beyond knives, the range includes knife stands and sharpening stones (associated with the Wastikivi brand), gift cards, and packaging. A laser marking service lets customers personalize knives with a company logo or name, which the site promotes for corporate business gifting. The company holds Finland's Avainlippu Key Flag mark, indicating domestically manufactured goods. Care instructions specify hand-washing only, no dishwasher.
