Discover Europe's largest selection of composite materials. And even some exclusives, because Mercornes has been making high-quality resin-based materials itself since 2006, including inclusions, carbon fiber, pearly horn, pine cones and many others.
The introduction of composite materials in cutlery is a relatively recent development, as these materials are the fruit of technological advances over the last few decades.
Until the mid-twentieth century, cutlers mainly used traditional materials such as wood, bone, horn and natural materials to make knife handles. However, with advances in industry and research, new composite materials began to be developed and incorporated into cutlery.
Composite materials are created by combining different substances to take advantage of their individual properties while compensating for their weaknesses. In cutlery, composite materials are used to create knife handles that offer high strength, wear resistance and modern aesthetics.
Today, modern cutlery benefits from the diversity of composite materials, enabling cutlers to explore a multitude of designs, styles and functionalities to meet the needs of contemporary users. Whether for professional kitchen knives, hunting knives or tactical knives, composite materials have brought a new dimension to cutlery, combining tradition and innovation.
