The Knife’s Best Features

  • Classic Blade: The knife sports a classic 8.5 cm blade. This special shape makes the blade strong and easy to sharpen.

  • Comfort Handle: A strong Beechwood handle forms the grip. It feels good and secure in your hand.
  • Safe Lock: The knife uses a simple safety lock called the Virobloc® ring. First, you twist the ring to lock the blade open while you cut. Then, you twist it again to lock the blade shut before you store it.

The Sheath: Easy to Carry

  • Keep It Safe: The included sheath (pouch) safely holds your knife. This protects both the blade and your pocket or bag.
  • Carry It Easily: The sheath includes a loop or lace so you can easily hang the knife from your belt or backpack.
