When tradition meets innovation, it is reflected in a classic Windmühlen knife R. Herder IBEX 100 Carbon Plum Wood. It is a masterfully crafted two-handed knife that combines tradition and modern technology in a fascinating way. This knife, manufactured in the knife city of Solingen, impresses with a unique combination of craftsmanship, innovative technology and high-quality material.
The handle made of fine plum wood is comfortable to hold and gives the knife a natural elegance. The convex grind, 10 cm long modified Sheepfoot blade is made of robust, non-stainless 102Cr6 carbon steel, known for its outstanding cutting properties and durability. This steel ensures precise cuts and makes the knife a reliable companion in any situation.
A special highlight is the Ratchett-Lock mechanism, a modern and secure further development of the classic tang lock. The blade can be opened effortlessly using the nail nick and engages securely in the back spring. The lock can be released via an elegant ring on the handle, allowing the knife to be closed safely and in a controlled manner. This mechanism makes the IBEX 100 not only exceptionally user-friendly, but also compliant with the German weapon law.
The design of the IBEX 100 is inspired by the proven shape of the Okapi knife, which is known worldwide for its versatility. This innovative further development offers outstanding cutting performance and a robust design that can withstand the demands of the outdoors.
Whether for outdoor use or as a collector's item, the Windmühlen knife IBEX 100 is a Solingen original that combines functionality, tradition and style in perfect harmony.

For over 150 years, the name Robert Herder has stood for excellent knife quality “Made in Solingen.” Founded in 1872 by Robert Herder at Keusenhof, the company developed from a traditional family of blacksmiths whose roots date back to the 18th century. From the very beginning, Robert Herder focused on quality rather than quantity – with handmade kitchen knives, scissors, and cutlery that were soon appreciated far beyond the borders of Solingen.
Even in the fourth and fifth generations, the company remained true to the principles of craftsmanship and the highest quality materials. Under the leadership of Giselheid Herder-Scholz and Frank Daniel Herder, the company mastered the challenges of globalization and structural change. The philosophy: only a knife made by hand can be truly sharp – and stay that way. That is why Robert Herder revived long-forgotten apprenticeship trades such as grinder and cutter, thereby securing the future of traditional Solingen craftsmanship.
With iconic series such as the K series, Parmoulin, and Grandmoulin, numerous design awards, and a global distribution network in 24 countries, the family-owned company proves that tradition and innovation are not mutually exclusive.
The credo remains the same:
“Good knives are made by hand.”
And you can feel it – with every cut.
