Hill Knives Holland

The Dutch Knife making company Hill Knives was founded in 1979 by Frans van den Heuvel † (father) and Albert van den Heuvel (son), who both have a technical background as toolmakers. It started as a hobby in 1975. They made knives for themselves and a few friends, but soon the orders came from all over the globe. The choice to make handmade knives full-time was easily made. Nowadays son Albert is in charge of the firm and by his hand the most beautiful folding knives arise. Not only their work is of a high standard but also the aesthetic side of the job is very well done. For that reason a lot of famous companies (like Asprey in London, Browning Arms and the French "Watch Architect" Alain Silberstein) like to sell Hillknives products. Also the Swiss SIG-Arms chose a Hillknives luxury folding knife to complete their set of pistols and knives (a limited edition).
