Who creates the design of Mikov
The word design is thrown around in every sense nowadays, because the look of a product is one of the key factors that influence whether a customer will buy it. And with knives, whatever their use - for sport, for hunting or for work - this is of course also true.
Let's keep our knives in the highest possible quality
Christmas is traditionally a time when many of us find one of our coveted Mikov knives under the Christmas tree as a gift.
