The Gitano handmade pocket knife is a unique masterpiece, designed and crafted by renowned knifemaker Gudy Van Poppel. This exclusive piece combines traditional craftsmanship with the highest quality materials to create a functional, aesthetically stunning, and unmatched knife with durability. Featuring a Bohler N690 stainless steel blade and a handle crafted with Sambar stag scales, this knife is not only a cutting instrument but also a collector's item that will reflect your good taste and passion for unique pieces.

Bohler N690 Stainless Steel Blade. The N690 steel blade is one of the finest stainless steels available on the market. Manufactured by Böhler, one of the most prestigious companies in the steel industry, N690 is distinguished by its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. It is a high-hardness steel (with a hardness level of 58-60 HRC) that provides a precise and long-lasting cut, making the knife perfect for both precision work and general use.

Sambar Deer Antler Handle. The Gitano knife's handle is made with sambar deer antler scales, a natural material highly prized for its unique beauty and durability. The sambar deer, native to Asia, is known for its strong, dense antler, ensuring a sturdy and ergonomic handle. Furthermore, each piece of antler is unique, making each knife a one-of-a-kind piece with slightly varying shades and patterns, making your Gitano knife truly exclusive.

Timascus Bolster. Timascus (or Titanium Damascus) is a material made from different titanium alloys, similar to Damascus steel but rust-free. Its layered creation process and manipulation generate unique patterns. It is lightweight, non-magnetic, and can change color when heated, making it ideal for luxury items.
