WeKnife Peer Copper, Black, pocket knife, Ostap Hel design – 2015f
£195.00 £175.50
The WE Knife Peer 2015 is a slim and top-quality pocket knife, designed by Ostap Hel. You immediately recognize his hand in this design. This is a top-quality version of such a typical Ostap Hel design. With premium blade steel and an excellent finish.
At first glance, the handle looks slightly geometric. Instinctively you might think that it won’t feel great in hand. Nothing could be further from the truth! Because of clever bevelling and the use of curves, the handle of the Peer feels great in hand. You quickly open the blade with the flipper. It runs very smoothly because of the ceramic ball bearings. When opened a solid framelock will block the blade.
The way the overlays are placed on the handle is stunning. On the lockside, this overlay also functions as the overtravel stop and ensures the lock won’t overstretch. As such the lock will stay in great shape.
The blade is made from CPM 20CV. To a certain degree, this is the American version of M390. A great type of steel for EDC use. It namely retains its sharpness well and is also corrosion-resistant. As such you don’t have to worry about that.
Because of its weight and slim profile, the Peer is a combination between an EDC pocket knife and a gentleman’s knife. We, however, think it is perfect for both purposes!
DESIGNERS / Ostap Hel
I’m a full-time designer and custom knives & gear maker from Poland.
Since I was a child I’ve always loved drawing things – probably because of genes. My father is a graduate of the Academy of Arts, so the first years of my life I spent with my parents in a dorm surrounded by students from all kinds of art faculties. My first “design” was also created then – when I was 2 years old I drew a really nice concept of the car. On a TV screen. Using mom’s lipstick. Parents weren’t very pleased when they discovered this masterpiece…
Knives in my life appeared when I was a teenager, due to my growing interests in the Middle Ages and all kind of weapons and knights equipment. I spent a year in an armorer workshop as an apprentice where I’ve learned basics of traditional medieval metalworking methods. Since then I’ve been looking for a more reliable, repeatable, and precise way of creating things than using basic hand tools – that’s how my own workshop and journey with manual machining and CNC was started.
Funny thing is that my next level of education was almost completely unrelated to designing or machining. The only connection between my studies at the Faculty of Law and knives was my master thesis about “Knives, knuckles and other dangerous items in Polish legislation”. After 5 years of studying my need for creation became too strong and I’ve decided to turn my “hobby workshop” into a full-time job.
Now I spend my time on things which I really like – designing and making custom knives & EDC gear.
All my designs are based on basic geometry, smooth transitions, and the Golden Ratio concept. However, in my collaborations, I’m always trying to experiment with new shapes and ideas to fit my partner’s company unique style and manufacturing capabilities
