Saladini knife ZUAVA olive wood
handmade regional knife from Italy, made by the company SALADINI from Scarperia in the heart of Tuscany, the balde is made from stainless UGINOX MA5MV (1.4116 HRC56-58) steel, the finish is mat, the scales are made from olive wood The Zuava characteristically has a metal frame covered on the outside by ox horn plating and features two pieces of solid metal at the end, called studs, which give the knife its considerable robustness. This knife has a long history. In fact, its name comes from an old Napoleonic military corps, known as the Zouaves, who were probably equipped with a blade similar to this knife, which still today is known as a French blade. Its name takes the feminine form since it comes from the expression “alla zuava”. This sturdy, easy to handle knife was used for all kinds of purposes, from hunting and skinning animals to working in the fields or at home. It was a treasured possession of anyone who was lucky enough to own one and was even used for eating. With this versatile range of uses, it was the most well-known knife made in Scarperia and many people therefore considered it to be the knife of Scarperia. knife closed 11 cmknife lenght open 19,5 cmblade 8,5 cmblade thickness 2 mmweight 100 gslipjoint delivered with a pouch

The model we offer draws inspiration from the classic Sardinian model, although we have completely revised its structure, putting steel liners inside the handle and a simple spring mechanism that partially blocks the blade. We craft two versions of the Pattada, one with studs and one without, replacing the classic hose clamp around the bolster. bolstersknife closed 12 cmknife lenght open 21 cmblade 10 cmblade thickness 2 mmweight 93 gslipjoint delivered with a pouch
Saladini knife RASOLINO TAGLIASIGARI buffalo horn
handmade regional knife from Italy, made by the company SALADINI from Scarperia in the heart of Tuscany, the balde is made from stainless UGINOX MA5MV (1.4116 HRC56-58) steel, the finish is mat, the scales are made from buffalo horn Originally from Sicily in the mid-nineteenth century, this knife is known as the Rasolino due to the blade’s similarity to a razor. We find traces of remarkably large Rasolino knives, about 25 cm in size, in ancient models with a simple spring mechanism and an ox horn handle decorated with carvings and grooves running down the material. Once the Giolitti Law was passed in 1908, prohibiting the possession of sharp knives, it is thought that a revised size model of this knife was one of the few models that were permitted. Appreciated for its cutting ability, the Coltelleria Saladini has also fitted this knife with a convenient section on the handle for a Tuscan cigar cutter (only in the cigar cutter model). knife closed 11 cmknife lenght open 19,5 cmblade 9 cmblade thickness 2,3 mmweight 87 gslipjoint delivered with a pouch

Saladini knife TRE PIANELLE horn tip
handmade regional knife from Italy, made by the company SALADINI from Scarperia in the heart of Tuscany, the balde is made from stainless UGINOX MA5MV (1.4116 HRC56-58) steel, the finish is mat, the scales are made from horn tip The Tre Pianelle knife gets its name from its style of blade which features three facets: two slanted side panels and a central panel. This knife has a long history; in fact, the three panelled blade was found in Roman and Sicilian models from periods before the nineteenth century and in other hunting knives. They had incredibly sharp lines that were more suitable for self-defence or attack rather than just cutting. However, this bloodthirsty side to the knife’s history was left behind when it became a Scarperia knife and fortunately Tuscany was not plagued by the series of stabbings that had been very common in other regions in previous centuries. In fact, this type of knife is rare among Scarperia knives because its specific features do not provide the very best cutting ability which is usually found in our knives.As the Tre Pianelle is a clasp knife, the blade is only sharp on the inner side which folds into the handle, while the side along the spine is not sharpened. As with all our knives, the heel of the blade features our characteristic cross of St Andrew. The handle is very slender and ends with the metal ferrules that are similar to the ones on the Fiorentino knife. knife lenght open 21 cmblade 9,5 cmblade thickness 1,8 mm delivered with a pouch
