The traditional Scarperia Ox Horn Handle Zuava Knife
A smaller version of Scarperia's Zuava, at the beginning of the last century this size, the smallest of the three models, was already featured in the catalogues of master knifemakers. The Zuava of Scarperia is a historic knife whose name recalls that of a legendary Napoleonic military corps, the Zouaves, who were issued with a similar blade, commonly referred to as "French style". Exclusively handmade since the late 19th century and an undisputed symbol of Scarperia's centuries-old knife-making tradition, today it is much appreciated as a utility pocket knife and not a defensive weapon. Revered as an invaluable implement for cutting, eating, working and hunting, as well as an inseparable, close friend, it was jealously treasured and treated as a very personal item. It would share people's daily lives through entire generations until it became utterly unserviceable and continues to exert its inexplicable, mysterious and fascinating attraction to this day. Its construction remains unchanged over the years, and today it is still faithfully reproduced with the original shape and materials.
