Some creations carry a story far beyond the object itself.

This custom set of Damascus table knives was created for Jorien and Evert, two doctors from Kortrijk. Since both work as doctors and surgeons, they are not allowed to wear jewelry. Instead of traditional wedding jewelry, they chose something they could use and cherish every day: a handcrafted knife set with both their names forged into the Damascus steel.

The handles were made from a root piece of cork oak lying in front of Mircae ’s studio (near Lissabon - Portugal). A material full of texture, history, and character.

It was a true honor to create these pieces for such a meaningful occasion. Even more special: the knives were immediately used during their wedding dinner at .be in Kortrijk.

Stories like these are exactly why I love making knives.

True craftsmanship deserves to be shared.

For this special collaboration with Flandrien Cheese, Atelier185 created a series of personalized Brut de Forge knives. Each one handmade, raw, and unique.

Designed to celebrate authentic artisan work, these knives were handed to a selection of chefs as part of Flandrien’s marketing campaign. A meeting between local makers, honest materials, and people who value the beauty of handmade goods.

Proud to see these pieces become part of a story that promotes craftsmanship in all its forms.

A story of craftmanship and shared passion.

I am incredibly proud to create custom knives for Chef Archibald De Prince, whose restaurant has been awarded a Michelin star.

Each knife is more than a tool, it’s a reflection of his journey.
The handle of this knife is made from birch wood sourced in Fratin, a place close to his past, and now also close to my story, where I spend time hunting.
Two paths, quietly connected through material and memory.

At Atelier185, we believe that true craftsmanship carries stories within it.
This knife is one of them.

Congratulations, De Prince Table & Chambres

A milestone worth celebrating.

Restaurant has kept his Michelin star, while also retaining its Green Michelin Star. A beautiful recognition of a vision rooted in craftsmanship and terroir.

Our collaboration goes back years. We first met during the Hell’s Kitchen event at Zaventem Ateliers, and have been connected ever since through a shared dedication to making, refining, and telling stories through our work.

At Atelier185, it means a lot to contribute to that story by creating custom knives for a place where authenticity and respect for ingredients are at the heart of everything.

Congratulations to the entire team at Toma!
This is so well deserved.

, where craft meets gastronomy.

I am proud to create custom knives for Menssa, the Michelin-starred restaurant of Chef Christophe Hardiquest. A place where precision, creativity, and identity come together on every plate.

For this piece, we translated that philosophy into form. The handle is made from a branch cast in bronze, raw, organic, and refined at the same time. A quiet tribute to nature, transformed into something enduring.

At Atelier185, every knife carries a story. This one speaks of craftsmanship, character, and the beauty of contrast.
So happy to see one of my handmade knives on his wall of knives.

“I admire our Belgian craftsmen, and I also promote them when I travel abroad,” he says. I love everything Belgian and want to make Belgium 'shine' beyond its borders. I mainly use the 3 knives that I purchased from Clem Vanhee to cut fish and tomatoes. Although they are not exactly cheap, I think that is rather “normal”. After all, it is not a matter of money, it is about the value of the product created.”

I like working with restaurants. It is very important that I can talk to them first. The central question is what exactly you want to do with that knife. The approach will be different each time. A design is then made based on the needs. All knives come with a lifetime warranty, including a free annual sharpening service. The knives are also numbered and can be personalized. For myself, I know that my customers have an eye for detail. Such as chef from , with whom I am currently working on the knives for the new restaurant in Knokke.

“I do 'everything' with him when it comes to knives, because it is a 100% Belgian company,” says Timon Michiels. I also like his method of starting a new knife from scratch in his garage in Gullegem. Let's say that it also has a high rock 'n roll quality. And, unlike many “large” industrial companies: you can also have a say. No two knives are the same for him."
