EICKER - a family business since 1928
Our company was founded in 1928 by Mr. Wilhelm Eicker and was primarily engaged in the production of special knives for worldwide export.
In 1946 Heinz Eicker , son of the founder, joined the company. He was the owner for 60 years. Under his management the domestic as well as the European business was expanded.
In 1972 the management was extended. Son Thomas Eicker joined the company after completing his training and studies. He was mainly concerned with the expansion of further exports. A new company logo was developed - the now world-famous globe with the inscription EICKER-MESSER.
For almost 90 years, the name Eicker has stood for high-quality knives produced especially for the meat industry. Thus, we occupy a leading position as a Solingen manufacturer. Production is carried out on the most modern machines, and only selected special steels are used.
Today, the program includes all types of meat knives, boning and carving knives, sharpening steels as well as an extensive range of accessories. The manufacturing location is Solingen/ Germany, the center of the German cutlery industry.
Since 2005 Nicholas Eicker has been working in the company in the fourth generation. His task is to meet the ever increasing demands in terms of quality and delivery time.
EICKER products are highly appreciated all over the world, which makes us proud, but also obliges us to continue to be a leader on the world market through quality. Under the slogan " Top of Cutlery " we export today in over 30 countries.
