Handcrafted French Pocketknife

Handcrafted in a small shop in Thiers, France, by a fifth-generation master coutelier, this distinctive pocketknife is of exceptional quality.

The 3" blade, made with SandvikŪ 12C27 stainless steel for good corrosion and wear resistance, has low-friction hinge washers for smooth action, and secures with an easy-to-operate liner lock. The African ebony handle scales, selected for good color and grain match, are fitted to the bolsters and liner with precision for clean lines and a comfortable fit in the hand. The spine is detailed with a hand-chiselled leaf motif, and an elegant pattern of concentric circular designs known as "bouchonnage" decorates the base of the blade. Indicative of the attention to detail throughout, both patterns are carried through to the inner faces of the blade liner.

Measures 8" overall, 4-3/4" closed. Comes in an embroidered black zippered case made of heavy cloth and padded to protect the knife.

Since these knives are hand made, each one is unique and only limited quantities are available.
