VIVUM: The Exciting New Knife Series from Friedr. Dick
Elegant and specially shaped birch wood handles with the highest quality knife steel and modern blade designs.
These unique knives combine a natural appearance with extreme sharpness. An elegant and specially shaped birch wood handle comes together with the highest quality knife steel and a modern blade design. A design that has now been honoured at one of the world's most prestigious design competitions - the Red Dot Award 2024.
The use of birch wood symbolizes life, strength, durability and reliability. The special wood grains make every VIVUM handle unique, so no two handles are the same. The new handle shapes not only look impressive but are also designed to sit snugly in your hand. The design is clear and expressive and the wood offers a natural and enjoyable feel.
Each VIVUM knife is finished by hand by experienced Friedr. Dick craftspeople. The special high-alloy steel quality contributes to a sharp cutting experience, with exceptional hardness and good corrosion resistance. During the hardening process, the blade is hardened under protective gas at 1,100 °C. The blades are then ice tempered down to -197° C to ensure the necessary flexibility and resilience of the knives and to optimise the material structure. This results in an optimal hardness of 58 HRC. The knives are therefore extremely sharp and ready for use in kitchens and on barbecues around the world.

“VIVUM has completely won me over. I love the grip and feel of the knives. For my kitchen over an open fire outdoors but also for everyday cooking at home – VIVUM is completely natural, super sharp and absolutely high-quality. The knives are perfect for me.”

In harmony with the birch wood handles, the extraordinary blade shapes of the VIVUM series knives allow for an even longer cutting motion. The highlight of the series, the “ASADOR” knife, is specially designed for use on barbecues. With its powerful blade, it cuts meat like butter and even larger pieces are not a problem.
