PELTEKO Knife
A well balanced knife that sits comfortably in the hand with the curvature of the body being ergonomically designed with grooves at the top for the fingers to rest and provide better grip.
Made from high speed carbon steel with excellent edge retention, the black patina on the body of the blade prevents corrosion. The blade is held together firmly by pressure asserted when the stainless steel body is compressed together. A point to note, the blade comes out of the box decently sharp but definitely not what you should settle for. Lightly sharpening it on a whetstone or just putting it through a few rounds of stropping will bring it much further.
At the other end of the handle, a blunt pointed tip can be found and this doubles up as a scratch awl.
Blade and Handle from Italy.
Length of handle: ~15.5cm
Length of Blade: ~13.8cm
