Knife Sharpener
Client: Bergkvist, Germany
For a German brand, I was asked to design a knife sharpener. I designed a clean and reduced shape that makes the product recognizable and distinguishes it from competitor products. Tungsten carbide rods are used for sharpening the knives. Bamboo and steel are combined in order convey the high quality and homely character of the product.
Although the product might look simple from the outside, the internal sharpening parts and connections between the various materials are relatively complex.
Serrated knives and Japanese single-beveled knives can be sharpened by pushing them to the left or right of the sharpening rods, depending on the side of the knife that is angled.
The sharpener is suitable for both sharpening and honing of kitchen knives.
