High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESBorn from centuries of knifemaking expertise and inspired by the spirit of exploration, the MKM Mercury Trek is a fixed-blade knife built for those who demand performance, reliability, and refined craftsmanship. The Trek is the result of a remarkable collaboration, bringing together Italy's most respected knife manufacturers under MKM (Maniago Knife Makers) and pairing their legendary skill with the visionary design of Jesper Voxnaes, a Danish master known for blending utility with beauty.
The Trek was designed with input from serious outdoorsmen: hunters, trekkers, scouts, woodworkers, and survival enthusiasts. Jesper Voxnaes took those insights and envisioned a blade that could handle every aspect of life in the field—a knife that feels natural in the hand, performs effortlessly, and carries with timeless elegance. His design, executed by the artisans of Maniago, combines rugged durability with the unmistakable grace of Scandinavian design.
At the heart of the Trek is a 5.12" trailing point blade crafted from N690 stainless steel, known for its edge retention, corrosion resistance, and balanced toughness—ideal for skinning, food prep, carving, or utility tasks. The satin finish gives the blade a clean, refined appearance while enhancing its resilience in harsh outdoor conditions. The full-tang construction ensures maximum strength and durability, capable of withstanding the rigors of extended use in the wild.
The handle, shaped from genuine Italian olive wood, offers more than just comfort. Its ergonomic contours fit securely in the hand, even during prolonged use, and the natural wood grain makes each knife one-of-a-kind. Stainless steel Torx hardware secures the handle scales firmly, and a lanyard hole offers additional carry options or retention in demanding environments.
The Trek measures 9.84" overall and weighs a balanced 6.35 ounces—substantial enough to feel confident in hand, yet light enough to carry with ease. It includes a custom-fitted black leather sheath, hand-stitched and designed for secure, stylish belt carry. Handmade in Maniago, Italy—an international hub of premium cutlery—this knife is more than a tool. It's an heirloom.
The MKM Mercury Trek is for those who venture beyond the trail, who rely on their gear, and who appreciate a knife that honors tradition while embracing modern performance.
