PERCEVAL Le Francais damascus black palmwood

LIMITED EDITION – Le Francais damascus with Black Palm Wood 

For this exclusive Perceval Le Francais special edition, carefully selected and stabilized black palm wood has been used. This rare and difficult-to-work material impresses with its striking structure and unique beauty. Through meticulous polishing, the palm wood develops a fascinating, almost three-dimensional shimmer in deep blue and black tones. 

It feels exceptionally smooth and pleasant in the hand, making it both elegant and practical. The blade is crafted from high-performance stainless damascus steel, "twisted" damascus, renowned for its excellent cutting properties and edge retention. Finely ground and extremely sharp, it guarantees precise and effortless cutting.

Folding knife with liner-lock, screw-mounted. 
Straightening, assembly, shaping, polishing, finishing and sharpening are all handcrafted in our Thiers workshop.
