Material and style

  • On special order or in limited series, the handle can be supplied in snakewood, a very precious wood from South America finely speckled and nicknamed "Panther Skin" or in Ebony from Gabon.
  • Snakewood and Ebony must dry for 8 years before being worked.
  • Ferrule in brass decorated with fine pearls, handle topped with  a ram's head.
  • Ferrule plated at 33 microns of silver. This weight of silver authorizes the use of the "Poinçon Carré". Quality 1.
  • Knife blade in forged and tempered steel with "mirror polish" treatment.

Care

Horn or snakewood handles, noble and living materials, should never be put in the dishwasher. It is strongly recommended not to immerse the handles in water as this may cause the wood to split.
