Collection Knives: For Knife Collectors and Custom Knife Enthusiasts

With this exclusive edition of Coltelleria Collini in collaboration with Fox we have chosen to match a model with a particular design like the Yaru with a Japanese powder (sintered) and rolled steel (SanMai) by Takefu Steel. 

For this project we chose to use the Super Gold2 (SPG2) steel at 62/63HRC for the cutting edge of the blade in order to guarantee exceptional cutting performance and sharpening durability, while at the same time ensuring a remarkable resilience and resistance to oxidation due to the blade lamination process.

Notes: Opening by Carson Flipper system - Movement on ball bearings - Design by Jesper Voxnaes - Exclusive version by Coltelleria Collini, Sprint Run in only 6 not numbered pieces, with Japanese stainless steel Takefu Steel SPG2 Rolled.

The rolled steel - imported in Italy by Collini Steel directly from the Japanese Takefu Steel - is based on the ancient Japanese tradition in the creation of the famous Samurai swords. As early as 1100, expert Japanese blacksmiths combined different materials to give Katana swords incredible cutting capabilities combined with previously unknown strength and flexibility. It is thanks to this revolutionary construction technique that the Samurai swords have been preserved until our days becoming one of the most fascinating objects made by man. Following this tradition applied to modern metallurgy, we are now able to have technologically advanced steels already tested and used in cutlery by famous brands such as Fallkniven, Cold Steel, Mcusta, Kai, Sog, Zwilling, Rockstead, etc.

- Longer cutting edge life
thanks to the use of high quality steels with high carbon content (VG10, CoS, Shiro) or sintered (SPG2), in the core steel, the blade, once hardened, reaches hardness and cutting performances definitely higher than those reached with the use of traditional steels.

- Greater resilience
Built on the principle of Japanese swords, the multilayer steel is difficult to break thanks to the toughness of the central steel (Core Steel) and the elasticity of the steel used for the lateral coating (Stainless Steel).

- Improved corrosion resistance
The steel used for the outer layers (Stainless Steel) gives the blade a high resistance to corrosion. The combination of the two or more materials used by Takefu Steel generates, at a galvanic level, a structure that improves corrosion resistance even on the edge.

- Easy machining even after heat treatment
Although steel normally becomes harder after hardening, the lateral steel used in multilayer machining does not lose its softness and allows easy machining, drilling or welding even after heat treatment. For optimum blade performance, cryogenic treatment is recommended.

- Improved aesthetic performance
Knives made of multi-state steel or damask pattern at the end of the processing are aesthetically elegant, refined and highly appreciated by collectors all over the world.

The new Gold Class 491BK-261 Lowden represents the most exclusive iteration of the Lowden platform. A high-performance knife that pays homage to the great achievements of American aeronautics in the space age, combining sophisticated design, advanced technologies, and craftsmanship of the highest caliber.

Built on a 6Al-4V titanium frame with a black DLC finish, it is enhanced by marbled carbon fiber inserts, which add depth and movement to the structure. The gold-plated steel bolster introduces an elegant and distinctive contrast, inspired by the canopy of the F-22 Raptor fighter jet.

The spear-point blade is crafted from exclusive Drakkar Damasteel, a 72-layer Damascus steel that reveals its complexity through the bevel’s finish and a deep acid etching, which highlights a fluid and dynamic pattern. The result is a cohesive ensemble of premium materials and finishes. The 72-layer Damasteel offers a rich, layered visual depth, while the DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating combines protection with a technical aesthetic.

From a mechanical standpoint, the Lowden platform stands out for its fluidity and precision. The ball-bearing-mounted flipper opening mechanism ensures rapid and controlled movement, while the AXIS Lock system provides a secure closure and a solid, consistent feel during use.

The Gold Class 491BK-261 Lowden combines advanced engineering, premium materials, and an aesthetic inspired by the aerospace industry, resulting in a balanced, refined, and highly distinctive creation.

Notes on the Designer

Michael Walker is to the knife industry what Michael Jordan is to basketball or Wayne Gretzky is to hockey. He shattered established standards, venturing into uncharted territory and elevating the art of knife-making to new heights of innovation and modernity.

In 1980, the folding knife industry had few locking innovations, and only the traditional Back Lock existed. In 1981, Walker invented, developed, and ultimately trademarked the Michael Walker LinerLock®, adding a leaf spring that locked the blade open, making it a true one-handed folding knife. He also included a latch to keep the blade closed by utilizing the force of the internal leaf spring, preventing it from opening in the user’s pocket.

This innovation paved the way for modern cutlery, enabling numerous new designs and future developments leading up to today’s SubFrame Lock, Frame Lock, Flipper Folder, and ball-bearing-equipped IKBS opening systems.

Other inventions include the “Lake and Walker Safety System” (LAWKS), BLADELock, Ball Bearing Lock, and Tough Lock.

Some of the manufacturers he has collaborated with include Spyderco, Columbia River Knife and Tool, Schrade, Böker, and Klotzli.

Walker’s knives and designs have inspired many other custom knife makers, notably Bob Terzuola and Ernest Emerson. Terzuola credits Walker with teaching him how to make a liner-lock folder, and Emerson has stated that seeing one of Walker’s knives at a gun show inspired him to become a knifemaker.

Walker’s knives can be found at the Artifex Gallery in Taos and in the most prestigious collections around the world.

Mariner 2 – Heritage Series - The perfect EDC, born from legend.

Born in the 1980s from the pioneering vision of Bob Terzuola, the Mariner was conceived as a true EDC to carry every day, without compromise. Today, this revamped version pays homage to the original, combining aesthetics faithful to the spirit of the first model with a modern, compact and legally compliant design under 3".

The new Mariner 2 features a MagnaCut steel blade with a sheepsfoot profile, sharp, durable, and hardened to 64 HRC, set in a grade 5 titanium handle that guarantees strength without bulking up your pocket. Every detail has been carefully crafted: encapsulated ceramic bearings, steel liner lock with insert, 3D milled clip with the legendary dragon head logo, and a machined titanium thumb disc with dovetail joint.

This reissue is not only a tribute to the history of custom design, but also a celebration of mechanical innovation and high-end materials, all precision-crafted in Dallas, Texas. A piece that combines past and future, for those who demand the best from a pocket knife.

Japanese steel meets Italian excellence

For this 2021 collaboration between Coltelleria Collini of Busto Arsizio and Fox Knives of Maniago, we decided to offer the 609OD Bushman, an outstanding bushcraft knife produced by Fox Knives of Maniago, using high-performance Japanese V-Toku2 Sanmai steel (5mm) from Takefu Steel instead of the D2 steel used in the standard model.

Specifically, we used high-carbon V-Toku2 at 62/63HRC for the central core and stainless SUS410 for the outer layers, ensuring exceptional cutting ability, penetration, and edge retention. At the same time, the blade offers high corrosion resistance and increased toughness due to the laminated structure and external stainless steel.

Technical Specifications

Like the ancient swords of the Japanese Samurai.

The laminated steel—imported into Italy by Collini Steel directly from Takefu Steel in Japan—follows the ancient Japanese tradition of crafting legendary Samurai swords. As early as the 1100s, Japanese blacksmiths combined different materials to create Katana swords with incredible cutting power, strength, and flexibility, unmatched at the time. This revolutionary forging technique has allowed Samurai swords to survive to this day as some of the most fascinating objects ever created.

By applying this tradition to modern metallurgy, we now have technologically advanced steels that have been tested and widely used in knife-making by renowned brands such as Fallkniven, Cold Steel, Mcusta, Kai, Sog, Zwilling, Rockstead, and more.

San Mai Steel Features: This consists of different types of metals fused together to create a composite steel that enhances and intensifies the individual strengths of each material:

• Longer-lasting cutting edge: High-performance, high-carbon core steels (VG10, CoS, Shiro) or sintered steels (SPG2) provide exceptional hardness and cutting performance after heat treatment.
• Increased toughness: Inspired by Japanese sword-making, the multi-layered steel is highly resistant to breakage due to the toughness of the core steel and the flexibility of the outer stainless steel layers.
• Improved corrosion resistance: The outer stainless steel layers provide high corrosion resistance. The galvanic combination of Takefu Steel’s materials further enhances resistance along the edge.
• Ease of reworking after heat treatment: Unlike standard steels, the outer layers retain some softness even after hardening, allowing for easier processing, drilling, and welding.
• Enhanced aesthetics: Multi-layered or Damascus-patterned knives are visually striking, elegant, and highly sought after by collectors worldwide.
