MKS Design is a small firm is comprised of Adam Simha. His work is mostly what I would call musings in steel. The knives for, instance don't necessarily feel like something Adam set out to do. I would guess that they just happened. They are made of extremely high-quality steel and have somewhat unique shapes. But the handle really sets the knife apart from the competition. The handle is a modern day equivalent of the bicycle grip used on an old Schwinn Cruiser. I personally prefer handles that are sort of deep and integrated into the steel, but these knives look really cool!
