Novinka UTON vz. 74 se chystá na trh
Komunita sběratelů a fanoušků nožů se dlouhodobě zajímala o vývojový prototyp populárního UTONu. Tento nůž byl původně určený pro průzkumníky. Proto, když jsme přemýšleli nad tím, který nůž v limitované sérii 500 kusů vyrobit k připomenutí 230. výročí nožířství v Mikulášovicích, rozhodli jsme se právě pro něj. Mikov mu dal obchodní jméno UTON vz. 74.

Joint project with the Czech Red Cross earned 100 thousand crowns
A limited edition UTON knife with a red handle has brought the Czech Red Cross 100 thousand crowns, which we are sending immediately. The recent floods have shown the need for crisis preparedness and the Czech Red Cross will be able to use these funds immediately to strengthen it.
Did you miss the knife exhibition in Příbram? Come to our e-shop
We spent the weekend of 14th and 15th September in Pribram at the Knives 2024 exhibition. This year the event was affected by rains and floods. The outdoor program was cancelled and for obvious reasons, fewer visitors arrived than the organizers of the 33rd edition expected. But those who did come to the exhibition encountered exactly what they expected.
How to choose a quality knife
Sometimes we encounter customers online and in person who are unhappy with the knife they bought. Given the plethora of options on the market, choosing the right knife can be quite challenging. So how do you know which one is right for you? That's why Mikov has some advice that may be of help to you.
DLC finish - diamond hardness
Blade finishes and coatings are becoming increasingly popular in knife manufacturing. Mikov uses two types of these coatings - Cerakote and DLC, or Diamond-Like Carbon. DLC has unique properties and is popular not only for knives, but especially in industry wherever high wear and corrosion resistance is required.
Tasting knife
Are you a gourmet? Do you love food and like to test new flavours? Is it important to you that the food you taste is as little damaged and contaminated as possible during such testing? Then you need a tasting knife with a typically long and narrow blade that allows you to easily penetrate, for example, a piece of cheese or butter. And Mikov hasn't forgotten you, of course.
Knife for military explorers - a milestone on the way to contemporary UTON
The UTON military knife is one of the most famous and popular knives that Mikov produces. Its introduction into the armament of the then Czechoslovak People's Army in the mid-1970s was the result of many years of development. During the development process, a reconnaissance knife was also tested, which, although it did not eventually make it into mass production, was in many ways superior in function and design to the UTON.
