Mozzetta handcrafted in horn or wood with steel blade Made in Italy.

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 product is a faithful reproduction of the ancient pocket knife called " Mozzetta " which is linked to the history of the Italian Republic since in 1908 the Giolitti government prohibited the wearing of pointed knives with blades of more than 4 cm. To overcome the problem, the model with a blunt point was introduced whose limit for the blade was 10 cm and for this reason there was a high diffusion of these knives in the following years. The blade is made of MA5M steel and features a simple spring closure which makes this weapon safe and reliable while the handle is formed by a metal structure with a hard steel and a handle with plates in horn or wood that makes the product resistant and functional. 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.
