PERCEVAL Le Francais Krion black

Le Français is a knife that has a rare elegance that allows it to be as comfortable in the city and countryside. Scales are made from Krion. Black Krion is a strong material, highly resistant to impact and shock. Similar to natural stone, it is made up of two thirds natural minerals and a small percentage of highly resistant resin. This composition gives it exclusive characteristics: no pores, antibacterial properties without any type of additive, hardness, resistance and durability, low maintenance and easy cleaning.

Folding knife with liner-lock, screw-mounted. 
Straightening, assembly, shaping, polishing, finishing and sharpening are all handcrafted in our Thiers workshop.
