handmade regional knife from Italy, made by the company SALADINI from Scarperia in the heart of Tuscany,

This undoubtedly fascinating knife has a unique shape. Dating back to the mid-nineteenth century, its origins are linked to a knife from the Abruzzo town of Loreto Aprutino and it still retains its original features: a straight, narrow, pointed blade in the shape of a reed leaf, with a straight handle stretching up to halfway that then curves markedly towards the end, so much so that it gives the knife its popular name of gobbo (or hunchback in English). The Abruzzese of Scarperia is an extremely light and easy to handle knife, as a whole it has a sleek, elegant shape and fully deserves to be known as a real Scarperia knife.

the balde is made from stainless UGINOX MA5MV (1.4116 HRC56-58) steel, the finish is mat, the scales are made from buffalohorn

SALADINI

Der Firmensitz von Saladini ist Scarperia, ein kleiner Ort in der Toskana, der ca. 20 km von Florenz entfernt ist. Das Wahrzeichen ist der Palazzo Pretorio in Scarperia, mit seinem markanten Turm.

Scarperia wurde am 8. September 1306 gegründet und seine Besonderheit ist die alte Tradition der Messer Herstellung, oder besser der "schneidenden Eisen", wie diese Objekte altsprachlich früher genannt wurden. Saladini möchte diese alte Tradition, der handwerklichen Herstellung von Taschenmessern, BTafelbesteck und Kochmessern. Alles wird mit jener Sorgfalt und Aufmerksamkeit hergestellt, die Objekte verdienen, welche mit Liebe und Hingabe geschaffen werden.
