This line of
regional knives are part of the ancient tradition and are handcrafted by master cutlers who are experts in the sector who respect traditional techniques, thus managing to bring back to life the uses and customs of a place. These types of knives are typical of different capitals and areas of the Italian peninsula and, thanks to the love for tradition, they bring back to life the culture and habits of the past, thus managing to tell a piece of history.
This
faithful reproduction represents the
regional pocket knife called "
Romano " born between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries within the Papal State and was mainly used during brawls in taverns or Roman village festivals.
The blade is particularly sharp and is made of
MA5M steel while the handle has a full
horn handle enriched with lattice or herringbone decorations and engravings which, in addition to making it unique and elegant, also allow for a firmer and safer grip. The knife also has a
fixed spring locking system called "ratchet" due to the characteristic noise produced when the blade is opened.
Handcrafted in Italy with quality materials, the final product allows you to tell a story by bringing to mind the uses and customs of
the past and at the same time handing down the
culture of the past thanks to the attention to detail and the passion of the master cutlers.
