Atelier Perceval - Le Francais White Ebony
- The classic from France
- made by hand
- Extremely thin ground
- striking grain of the white ebony
The Le Francais is already something of a modern classic of the French knife culture and is, along with the L08, one of Perceval's most popular models.
Due to the thin, extremely cutting blade and the very universal handle, it is suitable for a whole range of cutting tasks that occur in everyday life. At the same time, the knife does not attract attention in any way and even makes a really good picture in a restaurant. Thanks to the small leather case it can be carried comfortably in your pocket without scratching the beautiful handle.
Although we are dealing with a quite modern knife design, the roots of Le Francais go back to the 17th century. Already in this long past time, French farm workers used a very similar looking knife.
The Le Francais is locked by a cleanly engaging liner lock, which is wonderfully easy to unlock. Due to the small nail hammer the knife can be opened easily with two hands. The wonderfully pointed blade is very well suited for fine work and the cutting edge, which is sharpened on buffalo leather, comes with an enormous sharpness.
The Sandvik 19C27 steel used is highly rust resistant and therefore completely unproblematic in combination with food.
All in all you get a really great piece of French knife culture, which will surely take a special place in your collection.
White ebony, comes from Southeast Asia and is a hard, dense wood, typical is the special grain of light wood and dark veins.
