The **Messermeister Custom utility knife** is a small, stylish, but very practical kitchen knife. The knife is very lightweight so you have lots of control over the blade, making it perfect for small, precise cutting jobs in the kitchen. It's the ideal little knife for cutting or peeling fruit or small vegetables.

## Messermeister Custom collection

Messermeister Custom kitchen knives are a game-changer for lifestyle enthusiasts. With the Custom series, Messermeister offers you the opportunity to pimp the knives according to your preferences. How? By swapping the handles and hardware for another colour! You can therefore make the knives your own, and match them to your kitchen interior and your lifestyle.

### How do you change the handle of a Messermeister Custom kitchen knife?

Changing the handle is very easy. But what do you need? Of course, you'll need scales that are the right size, and a Torx 9 screwdriver.

**For this knife, you need small scales.**

Put the knife on a soft, flat surface and cover the cutting edge with a piece of tape. This reduces the risk of mishaps or accidentally damaging the edge. Loosen the screws and put them in a small container to make sure you don't lose them. Remove the standard scales and put the new scales on the knife. Secure the screws, but not too tightly. If you tighten the screw too tightly, you increase the chance of the scales splitting or getting damaged. You don't need glue or epoxy. And just like that, you've got your very own custom kitchen knife!

## Custom collection materials

The blade is made from German X50 steel. This is a stainless steel with a hardness of 58 HRC. The blade has a sleek stonewashed finish. It looks great aesthetically, and it also masks traces of use well.

The handle is made from blue canvas micarta. This is made from canvas and synthetic resin. This material offers great grip in all circumstances, even when there is moisture or fruit juice on the handle. Micarta takes in all the traces of use, so the knife will become entirely unique over time!

## Messermeister Custom: a modern interpretation of the classic German kitchen knife

After producing classic German kitchen knives for over 40 years, Messermeister felt it was time for a change. The result? The Messermeister Custom collection. A modern interpretation of the classic, full-tang German kitchen knife with the three steel rivets.

Ich war sehr angetan von dem Griffschalen, tolle Optik, der Stahl war auch in dem Segment das er mir zusagte. Der Nachteil war die Schneidleistung 0,54mm hinter der Schneidphase ist mir zu dick.
Ich habe extra darauf geachtet das die Klingenstärke sehr dünn ist und war dann mit dem Schneidergebniss nicht zu Frieden. 
Da greife ich demnächst auf den Solinger Dünnschliff zurück da wird die Phase auf 0,1mm runtergeschliffen das hat mich mehr überzeugt als Schneidteufel.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

Measured from the tip of the blade to the back of the handle

Total length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).

Way of sharpening

type_of_handle

value_total_sharpening_angle

This is the total sharpening angle, so the sharpening angles of both sides of the blade combined. For a knife with a one-sided grind this equals a single sharpening angle.

For the number of knives in the knife sets we stick to the information supplied by the manufacturer. Some brands consider the block to be part of the set, others don't.
