5 years ago I went on holidays to Sardinia. During one of the lovely strolls through Alghero I encountered a little knife shop and realized there is a wealth of pocket knives made on the island of which I was not aware.

I caved and bought a "pattadese" (a particular profile from the village Pattada). The fit and finish was rather rough, but damn, it never left my pocket. I really like the profile and use it as parer on trips.



I often thought it would be nice to get one with better fit and finish. After some researching I found knives made by Davide Steri and was seriously impressed. I finally managed to contact him and he agreed to make me a knife (god bless online translation services as I do not speak Italian 😉 ).


to be continued....
