PIRGE Handmade X KROP series - a combination of tradition, innovation and unique design
The PIRGE Handmade X KROP series is a collaboration between PIRGE and renowned Turkish knifemaker Sinan Tansal, founder of KROP Knives. This exclusive range of handmade knives combines traditional craftsmanship with modern design and an eco-friendly approach. Each knife is made with attention to detail, ergonomics and practicality, thus appealing to both professional chefs and enthusiasts of quality kitchen utensils.
Unique materials and top quality
The knives in this series are made of premium Böhler N690 stainless steel with a hardness of 60 HRC, which ensures long-lasting sharpness, high wear resistance and easy maintenance. This special steel is characterised by its excellent toughness and ability to hold a blade even under heavy use.

Ergonomic handle for maximum comfort
Each knife in the PIRGE Handmade X KROP series features an ergonomically shaped handle that provides a firm and comfortable grip. This makes handling the knife easy and precise, minimising hand fatigue even when working in the kitchen for long periods of time.
In addition, the handles are made from unique materials, often using recycled components such as skateboard parts, coffee beans, electronic components or old files. This eco-friendly approach not only reduces the impact on the environment, but also gives each knife an original look and unique character.
Limited edition with unique design
The PIRGE Handmade X KROP series stands out not only for its functional properties, but also for its distinctive design that pushes the boundaries of traditional cutlery. Each piece is part of a limited edition, making it not only a powerful kitchen tool, but also an aesthetic element for anyone who appreciates quality and uniqueness.
Tansal's knives challenge the classic shapes of kitchen knives and are often part of prestigious exhibitions, such as the ECNP Galeri in 2018.
Who is behind the KROP brand?
Behind the KROP Knives brand is Sinan Tansal - a Turkish dentist, musician and knifemaker, born in 1964 in Adana. In addition to his musical career in the bands Mavisakal, Karapaks and İnsanlar, he became famous for making prosthetic teeth for the film industry.
In 2014, he founded the KROP brand, under which he started producing handmade knives with a unique design and ecological approach. Since 2019, he has been running his own workshop in Istanbul's Karaköy district, where he continues to innovate and push the boundaries of modern cutlery.
Thanks to his multidisciplinary approach, combining craftsmanship, graphics and music, Tansal was able to create knives that are not only tools but also works of art.
