The classic Florentine knife with Damascus steel blade
For centuries, craftsmen have worked metals and animal horn with respect and frugality, forging unique models of folding knives for the most diverse purposes. Indeed, traditional Italian knives with typical features became recognised as having "Regional" characteristics and served people's needs throughout their lives for generations. Scarperia knifemakers have been crafting switchblade and folding knives since the mid-19th century, and each locality has always had its renowned typical knives designed to last over time. Simple, elegant and sturdy implements of straightforward but effective construction, regional knife pieces were jealously guarded, faithful companions during long days tending flocks at pasture, when hunting, fishing at sea or at home. Scarperia Artisans create perfect reproductions of all regional knives, blending tradition with innovation and empowering the natural evolution of humankind's oldest hand tool.
