I'm Ben Herman, knifemaker and designer from Canada, and the creator and owner of Herman Productions
Though born and raised in Toronto, I spent much of my childhood at my grandparents' cottage in the Kawarthas enjoying the freedom and learning how to use my hands. From a young age my father played an integral role in my respect for and knowledge of tools. When he passed away, I decided to take th
is passion and pour it into the R-AEL Chef Knife, named after my late father. This labour of love reflects all the ideals I hold to when it comes to tools; Elegance, Ergonomics, and Function
