Hot Metal Knives (HMK) is a unique, Finland-based brand specializing in handcrafted, high-performance knives that merge traditional techniques with modern craftsmanship. Founded by bladesmith Thomas Rönnberg in 2019, HMK draws inspiration from centuries-old blacksmithing traditions, often blending Finnish and Japanese methods to create knives that are both functional and artistic.
Each knife is meticulously forged using reclaimed and repurposed materials, such as oak from whiskey barrels, antlers from seasonal hunts, and even wrought iron from 200-year-old artifacts. This focus on sustainability, combined with attention to detail, ensures that every knife is one-of-a-kind, with unparalleled durability and performance.
With a commitment to both heritage and innovation, Hot Metal Knives appeals to serious collectors, outdoor enthusiasts, and culinary professionals seeking premium, handcrafted tools with a story.
