Carmilla - Knife Designed by Lia Hofmeister
Inspired by Carmilla, the groundbreaking Gothic vampire novella written by Sheridan Le Fanu and first published in 1872, this collector's knife pays tribute to one of the most influential figures in vampire literature.

Crafted from genuine Damascus steel, the blade features intricate deep laser engravings inspired by Victorian lacework and Gothic ornamentation. Decorative gemstones are set directly into the Damascus blade and into the removable ring at the end of the handle, adding a luxurious touch that reflects the elegance and sophistication associated with Carmilla herself. Combined with the hand-engraved handle scales, these details create a collector's piece that feels as refined as the character that inspired it.

The blade is single-edged, combining practical everyday legality with the elegant profile of a traditional Gothic dagger.

A removable ring forms the end of the handle and can be unscrewed and worn separately as jewelry, creating a symbolic connection between blade and wearer.

Each Carmilla knife is accompanied by a custom display stand. Designed to pair seamlessly with the Dracula stand, the two pieces form a complete moon motif when displayed together—a tribute to the eternal night shared by literature's most iconic vampires.

The knife is presented in a custom collector's box designed to resemble an antique book. The packaging features exclusive illustrations created by the designer herself, transforming the presentation into an extension of the story and making the piece feel like a relic taken directly from the pages of Gothic literature.

More than a century before modern vampire fiction, Carmilla introduced the seductive and mysterious female vampire archetype that would influence generations of writers. This dagger seeks to capture that same elegance, beauty, and darkness in steel.

Designer: Lia Hofmeister

For Lia Hofmeister, every blade begins with a story. Growing up as the daughter of Dirk Hofmeister, founder of Midgards-Messer, she was surrounded early on by knife craftsmanship and design culture. Yet her creative path was shaped just as strongly by art, illustration, and literature.Influenced by gothic aesthetics and classic literary works such as Edgar Allan Poe’s writings, Dracula, and Carmilla, Lia brings a strong narrative sensibility to her designs. Her first knife, Lenore, marked the beginning of her journey into blade design.Unlike traditional knife makers who focus primarily on technical performance, Lia approaches each project as a storytelling process. Mood, symbolism, and visual identity are developed first, before being translated into steel through form, material, and detail.For Lia, a knife is not only a tool, but a designed object that carries emotion, atmosphere, and meaning. Through her design at WITHARMOUR, she combines modern blade design with artistic influence, creating pieces that transform stories into functional steel.
