[H1] The knife,

[H2] a friend and a work tool

For perfect use and maintenance of your knife,
please follow these simple instructions:
keep you knife well sharpened.
A well sharpened knife requires less force to use
it and the potential hazard is therefore reduced.
Keep the locking area of the knife clean, dirt may
cause the locking mechanism to malfunction.
We suggest to use compressed air to clean this area.
In many of our knifes there is steel
with a high percentage of carbon, in
order to keep them sharp longer.
Unfortunately carbon causes rust.
Therefore we suggest frequent cleaning and to
put a light coat of protective oil on the blade.
Can’t find what you are looking for?
You can also ask for information directly by e-mail.
Our technicians will answer you in
the shortest time possible.
