As for the knives, I think they are great an classy and with a good modern touch. I have Rasolino by Viper with same system and I think it is great modern alternative to classic slip-joint. Rotating opening is also great, would love to see more knives using this construction. As for steel, any good modern steel is better anyway, for any intended usage. Thank you Stefan for another great video review and please keep doing this awesome work! I wish I could help you one day to cut all the cheese and pour the drinks... and drink and talk about knives and history....

The knife with the secret opening mechanism likely would not make it past Canadian customs because it looks as though it can be opened using one hand by employing a butterfly like opening action. Sadly butterfly/balisong/gravity like knives are prohibited in Canada.
@WillEDC3 жыл бұрын
But seems there is enough friction so the blade doesn’t drop by gravity alone.
