Nontron Pocket Knife No25 - Damascus Blade Clog Handle

 Free 2/3 Day Delivery

The Nontron knife shares the name of the French village of its birth located in the Dordogne department. This knife's history is filled with so many legends that it is difficult to date its exact origin; however, most experts agree that the Nontron knife is the oldest French folding knife dating back to the 13th century. Today, the cutlery that bears its name since 1928 produces handmade knives using ancestral methods. The procedures used to conceive todays' Nontron pocket knives are nearly the same since the fifteenth century.

❖  ABOUT THIS KNIFE 

Handle material: Ebony harvested in Gabon, Africa. Ebony is the darkest wood in the world and one of the few that does not float.

Handle type: Medieval Clog handle. Highly ergonomic, this ancestral design prevents hand slippage and provides a safe resting area for the blade's tip.

Safety ring: This knife features a simple brass locking ring to keep the knife's blade locked while open.
Safety evolution: Early Nontron knives did not have a locking mechanism; the blade was simply held open by the wood's pressure. The first locking device was composed of a simple hole and a nail. Today's brass locking ring was introduced during the 19th century.
