Custom knife by Matthias Leimküller from Solingen in pure handcraft including Kydex by me

Pure perfection. This is what this knife from Solingen knife maker Matthias Leimküller expresses. You have to wait several months to be able to hold a Leimküller knife in your hands. Now Matthias has made 3 beautiful outdoor knives for me. In pure handwork! Matthias did not even laser the blanks of the blades with these knives.

With this knife it is a pleasure to see the accuracy with which Matthias carries out his work. Because the finish of the blade is not just a stonewashed or just satin ... or a two-tone finish, if you like. No ... here Matthias stonewashed the main part of the blade and the "false cutting edge", but sanded another part lengthways by hand. And when you see the accuracy with which both surface treatments were carried out, then that's a dream.

For the handle, he underlaid black jute micarta with red liners and fixed them with carbon pins. He then asked me to build the matching Kydex sheaths here.
So for this custom knife I made a Kydex out of "Aqua blood" which goes perfectly with the red liners. For a perfect wearing comfort I have also installed our dangler system with a leather loop. This has the advantage that you can remove the entire Kydex from the belt using the snap fasteners without having to open the belt. Furthermore, you can sit down without the knife pressing into your stomach, as our dangler system can easily be moved sideways.

With this custom knife and our custom Kydex you have a perfectly matched package.

Have fun with it!
