Daniel Gentile - FERRUM D

The fire, knives and swords – working at the anvil with glowing steel – have fascinated me as far back as I can remember. The knife fascinates me as a tool in everyday life, the sword as a weapon and because of its mythical past.

Daniel Gentile - FERRUM D Gentile - has been forging high-quality, unique items from composite welded steel ("Damascus steel") for over 20 years, combining old and modern techniques.

Your knife for the passion in the kitchen, in nature as well as for crafts. Swords & axes are also created based on historical models.

Primarily high-quality & sustainable materials are used, e.g. beautiful fruit tree woods from Switzerland.

In addition to the production of high-quality custom knives, FERRUM D Gentile also offers a selection of forging courses, giving you the opportunity to make your own knife from scratch using Damascus steel that you have forged yourself.

„Even after more than twenty years as a knife maker, working at the anvil, with fire and steel is a work full of passion for me, a part of my life, my person.“
