Description

Atelier Perceval 
 
The company Atelier Perceval, which is based in the French knife capital Le Thiers, was founded in 1995. The factory's trademark is the select and often very extraordinary choice of materials used for the handle with high-quality finish for which the manufacturer offers a lifelong warranty. The knives are precisely made by hand and with no frills, lending them a timeless elegant look. The finely polished handle scales are mounted to stainless steel plates and fixed with three screws.
 
Handle scales made of desert ironwood. Due to its slow growth, desert ironwood from the Arizona desert is one of the hardest and densest wood types. It has a beautiful gold-brown colour with dark streaks. Due to its high density it is extremely resistant to moisture.
Inspired by a knife from the 17th century, Perceval developed the model "Le Français". The blade forged of Sandvik 19C27* steel has been hardened in liquid nitrogen (cryogenic treatment), which makes it extremely durable and easy to sharpen. A smooth liner-lock mechanism makes sure the blade is securely locked. The handle back has an open design and thus accentuates the puristic style. Comes with a pouch made of ecologically tanned cowhide. Hardness 57 HRC, rustproof.
