The Ovium II knife is a completely new interpretation of the concept — not merely an evolution of its predecessor, but a design created entirely from scratch. While inspired by the original Ovium, it represents a fresh, meticulously refined vision of a utility knife crafted in accordance with the Herman Knives philosophy.
The first Ovium captivated with its simplicity and harmony of form. Over time, however, Bartosz Herman decided to give it a new spirit — more energy, more bite, and a touch of boldness. The result is Ovium II – a knife with a distinctive silhouette, aggressive lines, and magnetic aesthetics. As the creator himself says, it was meant to be “simply sexy.”
One of the biggest design challenges was to fit a large, fully functional blade into a compact handle without sacrificing ergonomics or lightness. The result exceeded expectations — despite its substantial and highly practical blade, Ovium II remains exceptionally handy, comfortable, and perfectly balanced.
This knife combines strength and finesse. Its muscular form and dynamic profile give it a unique presence, while the flawless finish and precision craftsmanship highlight the mastery of Herman Knives artisans. Ovium II doesn’t just cut beautifully — it captivates.
The new Ovium is more than just another model — it is a celebration of the philosophy: maximum functionality in a comfortable, compact form that also pleases the eye.
