Its 8cm blade is made of XC75 carbon steel. This is the best choice for long-lasting sharpness without daily sharpening. Carbon steel is favored by connoisseurs for its many advantages. The blade has a pleasant, rustic, semi-rough appearance. In addition to long-lasting cutting quality, the blade of this knife is very easy to sharpen. You'll have no trouble keeping it sharp.

Carbon steel requires special care: unlike stainless steel, it is sensitive to corrosion. It is advisable to dry it thoroughly with a cloth after cleaning, to prevent any traces of rust from appearing. The color of the blade may change with use, and a patina may form. This is a normal process for carbon knives and makes them authentic!

The handle of the Lo Pastre 2959 knife is made from ram's horn. The complexion of this horn is very attractive and is unique on every knife! Each piece is different, depending on the horn used to make it. The shape of the handle may also differ from one piece to another. This is a handcrafted knife, so you'll have a unique knife in your hands!

This 2-nail knife has no blade locking system. To open the knife, simply use your fingers to pull on the blade, then use it for whatever you need: picking herbs, cutting small branches, cleaning a hoof or simply making yourself a sandwich.

Originally, this type of knife was designed by shepherds during grazing season. It enabled them to pass the time by making a useful tool for their work. All they had to do was find a horn on the ground and take a piece of iron from a horseshoe or other metal object. Simple pebbles were used for sharpening.
