A new small series featuring striking handle scales made from vividly grained juniper burl and blue resin (epoxy resin). Each knife is a unique piece. The AMICU Corse is another knife originating from Corsica, alongside the Corsican Vendetta. It is also known as the U Cursina. For a long time, the AMICU was a trusty companion to shepherds in the harsh mountain climate of Corsica. It was ideally suited for both hunting and a quick snack. The knife has wide handle scales and sits comfortably in the hand thanks to its round, sturdy grip. The blade, made from 12C27 Sandvik stainless steel, is relatively wide, short and strong. The steel used retains its edge well and is easy to sharpen. The AMICU has a stiff back spring. Despite the wide blade, it still opens easily. The AMICU stands out from the otherwise rather delicate range of French knives. All AU SABOT models are crafted using time-honoured techniques, whilst constantly incorporating modern methods. The handmade knives in our range are simple, traditional French pocket knives that do not seek to compete with high-end products. steel: 12C27 sandvik stainless steelblade : 8,5 cmscales: juniper full and epoxy resin handleblade width: 30 mmknife opened: 17,5 cm weight: 125 g no lock100% made in France
