Fontenille Pataud Corsican Sperone, olive wood

Classic French hand-made Laguiole pocket knife. Closed length: 12.3 cm. Features a 12c27 steel blade and back-lock system. Handle is made from olive wood.

The Corsican ‘Sperone’ series (Sperone means ‘spur’ in the Corsican dialect) is a somewhat more solid and robust series than other knives in the Fontenille Pataud range. The outline of the island of Corsica is embossed on the spring and on the blade is the renowned ‘Moor’s Head’, the symbol of Corsica.

All Fontenille Pataud knives are manufactured from only the finest, top-quality materials. The bee and spring are forged from one piece of steel and are not welded together. Everything about these knives reflects quality and every time you use these knives, you are able to appreciate this superb quality!

Lock-back system
This knife incorporates a precision lock-back mechanism on the blade. This secure system guarantees safety and ensures that a heavy spring in the knife is no longer necessary. This lock-back system also ensures that the knife opens and closes smoothly and effortlessly.
