Zuava, horn handle cm 8 blade length

Product description

Typical Italian folding knife made by Conaz, Florence.

THE METAL HANDLE PARTS OF THE OLDER ZUAVA KNIVES WERE GENERALLY MADE OF IRON AND, SOMETIMES, THIN SIDES OF HORN, DUE TO THE NEED TO ECONOMIZE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND AVOID ANY WASTE. IN FACT, THIS PROVIDED A USE FOR THE THINNER PARTS OF THE HORN. CURRENT PRODUCTION IS INSPIRED BY THE BEST MODELS WHICH WERE MADE WITHOUT ECONOMY IN MIND. Total length mm 190, blade mm 80. The natural striations of the handle may be different from that reproduced on the image.
