The Alt-Faden menu knife by Robbe & Berking is a flatware essential and is used for almost every meal. Robbe & Berking ensures that the knife handle is balanced and transfers the centre of gravity of the knife to the back - so that the blade never touches the tablecloth. It's these subtle details that make for true perfection. The blade of the menu knife is made of high-quality blade steel and is carefully fitted into the hollow handle by hand. Menu-size cutlery is smaller and more manageable than festive table cutlery, but larger than starter and dessert cutlery. This makes it ideal for everyday use.

Alt-Faden Collection

Experts can spot Alt-Faden by Robbe & Berking in an instant. The thread pattern of this design produced by Robbe & Berking originated around 1760, and Augsburg silversmithing with a single or double silver thread as a border dates back to a very early period. Experts recognise the thread repeated on the back and ending in a scallop shape as the distinctive signature of Robbe & Berking.
