Nesmuk knives

Nesmuk Janus

Nesmuk is a German knife manufacturer that handles all stages of knife design and production in Germany. hiomakivi.fi is the official reseller of Nesmuk. In the first phase, we have selected the interesting Janus series for our range, which combines niobium-alloyed knife steel, DLC coating technology, as well as an exceptionally well-designed handle and lightness.

The Most Comfortable Knife Handle on the Market

Nesmuk manufactures knife handles using CNC machining from various types of wood and in different color tones. The handles of the Janus 140 and 180 models have the same basic shape, but the handle of the longer 180 mm knife is slightly longer and thicker. The grip feels extremely comfortable in the hand.

Lightweight, Yet Powerful

There are many differences in knife weights, and you begin to appreciate the lightness, especially when using a knife daily. The lightness of Nesmuk knives is achieved by hollow grinding the left side and leaving the right side flat. However, the cutting edge itself is symmetrical in a V-shape, making sharpening easy.

DLC Coating


Diamond Like Coating (DLC) is a coating rarely seen in kitchen tools. It has been widely used in industries, such as in drill bit coatings and Formula car engines. The same coating is also found in many food industry molds where durability and good release properties are needed.

The hard and durable coating on Janus knives offers the following benefits:
  • wear and abrasion resistance
  • reduced friction
  • corrosion resistance
  • good glide properties
