Mass over mediocrity
Thick slabs, oversized pivots, overbuilt locks. Every PMP carries reserves no everyday task will ever push to the limit — and that's exactly the point.
PMP Knives · Horw, Switzerland
Production knives built like customs: massive slabs, uncompromising machining, limited small-batch runs. Designed by eleven designers from around the world — made for collectors and hard use.
What overbuild means
Thick slabs, oversized pivots, overbuilt locks. Every PMP carries reserves no everyday task will ever push to the limit — and that's exactly the point.
We source genuine, original materials and take no shortcuts. No fakes, no tricks — precise workmanship and documented quality.
Quality over volume: we produce in small quantities. Every run is limited — many models sell out during the preorder phase.
The models
From compact EDC to full-size overbuild folder: every model carries its designer's signature — and the build strength of PMP.

The brand
PMP Knives is run from Horw on Lake Lucerne, Switzerland — a premium brand that deliberately stays small. Every model is designed and engineered together with our design partners worldwide, then produced in small batches by our specialist manufacturing partner in China. Quality over volume, honest construction, honest communication — no shortcuts, no hype tricks.
«I always thought bears were cool — that's why these animals appear here very often.»
The bear in the logo says it all: powerful, uncompromising, anything but dainty. Just like the knives.
The design collective
PMP works with designers from Italy, Austria, Germany, Russia, China and Switzerland — creating truly unique designs you won't find twice.
Distribution
PMP does not sell directly to consumers. Our knives are available exclusively through selected dealers — with fair terms and real marketing support behind every run.
