: Argentinian knifemaker Mariano Yannoni is creating some spectacular knives. Born in 1974, Mariano is proud to belong to a generation that has brought back custom knifemaking to his country. Mariano studies under renowned master knifemaker Miguel Ángel Gugliotta. Yannoni’s knives are expertly made and show a tremendous level of craftsmanship. He brings his skills to knives designed for the outdoors, daily carry, and the kitchen.
This belt knife features a hand forged blade combining a high performance 1095 carbon steel core with 420 stainless steel sides. A forge finish at the top of the blade and the dramatic transition line between the two steels makes this blade a real head turner. A high flat grind ensures this utility knife makes a particularly effective cut. Because this knife is made from carbon steel, we recommend oiling the blade after use with camellia oil.
Desert Ironwood is combined with amber stag for an elegant, timeless handle. Carbon fiber and copper spacers add nice contrast. The hand contoured handle is extremely comfortable and provides a sure grip.
This knife is accompanied by a custom, hand stitched leather sheath.
Exceptional work throughout!
