The Legacy Behind F. Dick Butcher’s Knives

At The Hook Shop, we don’t just sell tools—we offer equipment that’s built on centuries of trust, craftsmanship, and performance. That’s why we’re proud to carry F. Dick Butcher’s Knives, a brand known worldwide for its commitment to precision and durability.

Over 245 Years of Excellence

Founded in Esslingen, Germany in 1778, Friedr. Dick began as a small manufacturer of files and sharpening tools. By 1873, the company expanded into professional knives, quickly becoming a global standard in the meat processing industry.

Still family-owned today, F. Dick manufactures its knives in Deizisau, Germany, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern engineering. Their products are trusted by butchers, chefs, and processors in more than 100 countries.

Why Buy from The Hook Shop?

While the quality of the tools matters, so does the source you buy them from. Here’s why customers across the U.S. trust The Hook Shop:

Built by Butchers, for Butchers

The Hook Shop was founded in 2002 when Rick couldn’t find the hooks he needed for his own walk-in cooler—so he started making them. From that hands-on, problem-solving spirit, the business has grown to become a leading name in custom butchering equipment, known for its reliability, craftsmanship, and service.
