Korth GmbH is a German high-end revolver producer. In 1952 weapon designer Willi Korth resigned from Hubertus Metallwerke to pursue his own designs. His first effort was a 9mm blank firing/gas revolver. Designed and manufactured by Korth starting in the winter of 1954/55, are now sought after as collector's items. In 1955, Korth founded a gunmaking company in Ratzeburg under of his name. In 1962 he designed and manufactured his first lethal revolver, initially chambered in .32 S&W Long. This was followed by the Sporting and Combat models, from 1966 and 1973.

Nowtime, each Korth revolver is custom made and costs over $5000.
