Perceval L08 - The modern classic
Perceval have managed to establish something like a modern classic in French knife culture with the L08.
With the wonderfully rounded curve of the handle, the L08 is slightly reminiscent of the rear of an old Cadillac - here the manufacturer has managed to combine the time-honored tradition of knife making in France with the modern design of the 20th century.
The result is a wonderfully coherent-looking knife, which also lies wonderfully in the hand.
The Sheepfoot blade, which is rounded towards the tip, allows for safe work and proves to be extremely cutting-friendly.
This is due on the one hand to the flat ground up to the back of the blade and on the other hand to the extremely thin cutting bevel. Perceval sharpen their knives all by hand on slowly rotating grinding stones. The final honing is also done - quite traditionally - on a strap made of buffalo leather.
An absolute highlight is the extremely satisfying sound when the liner lock engages. Here you simply notice how precisely these knives are made.
Since a pocket clip was the great line disturb, a Stecketui leather is included. So you can carry your L08 comfortably without scratching the handle scales.
Giraffe bone
Fancy something really special? How about handle scales made of camel bone? The material is dyed by the manufacturer in a special process, so that each knife is absolutely unique, because all models look a little different. The Color ist from blue to orange colore.

Einfach nur toll!
Mungu ibariki Afrika! Aus tiefer Verbundenheit zu diesem Kontinent, den Menschen und der Tierwelt, liebäugle ich schon eine ganze Weile mit diesem Messer. Nach unkomplizierter Bestellung und super schneller Lieferung, konnte ich es mir nun genauer ansehen. Was soll ich sagen, einfach nur schön. Ob ich es jemals als Messer benutzen werde, weiß ich nicht. Wahrscheinlich ist es nur zum Ansehen zu schade! Aber das ist es, wofür ich das Messer wollte, anfassen, anschauen, träumen und glücklich sein. Liebes Team der ASW, danke für dieses tolle Messer und für Euren super Service. Das Messer ist super toll verarbeitet und vielleicht nehme ich es ja doch mal zum Schneiden. S.M.
