The story of Korth-Korth begins with Willi Korth, a visionary railway engineer who, in the aftermath of World War II, set out to redefine the standards of revolver manufacturing. In 1954, Korth founded his own company in Germany, initially producing gas and blank-firing revolvers. Driven by a relentless pursuit of perfection, he soon transitioned to crafting live-fire revolvers, introducing his first cartridge model in 1964. Korth’s dedication to quality was evident in every aspect of production, from the selection of premium materials to the extensive hand-finishing that became the brand’s hallmark. Despite facing challenges such as ownership changes, bankruptcy in 1999, and factory closures, the Korth name endured, revived by new leadership and a renewed commitment to its founding principles. Major milestones include the development of modular cylinder systems, expansion into the U.S. market through a partnership with Nighthawk Custom, and the introduction of innovative finishes and custom options. Today, Korth-Korth stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of its founder, blending heritage with modern innovation to produce some of the world’s most coveted firearms.
