custom knives

As unique as a fingerprint, the Wander Tactical REVENANT is the creation of master craftsman Dino Picco, who has the ability to transform steel into emotion. It is not a knife: it is a functional sculpture, a one-of-a-kind piece in which strength and beauty coexist in perfect balance.

The D2 steel blade, hardened to 59/61 HRC and finished with an attractive Marble texture, catches the eye with its vivid veins, like a mineral forged from the earth itself. The handle, made of deer horn and Micarta, conveys an authentic connection with nature, offering a warm and ancestral grip, while its 508 grams speak to the substance of a tool born to last beyond time.

The heavy black leather sheath, hand-stitched and designed to accompany it with the same dignity, seals the character of an object that knows no compromise. A unique piece, not included in the catalog, accompanied only by a certificate of guarantee and authenticity: the REVENANT is not owned, it is handed down.

Takeshi Saji è nato nel 1948 a Takefu (prefettura di Fukui), una città situata all'incirca nel centro del Giappone e nel cuore di una zona da secoli votata alla produzione di lame. Il suo laboratorio è ancora lì, costruito intorno al forno grazie al quale, ormai da parecchi anni, Takeshi Saji forgia l'acciaio (soprattutto damasco) con cui realizza vari modelli di coltelli tradizionali giapponesi. La scelta dei materiali per le finiture (prevalentemente naturali), le linee essenziali - evocatrici dell'utilizzo - e gli accostamenti cromatici di raro impatto rendono le sue realizzazioni uniche e inconfondibili nel panorama della coltelleria mondiale e, in patria, gli sono valse il prestigioso titolo di Maestro.

The symbolic meaning of love knife, so you call the knife produced specifically to be exchanged between engaged, is twofold: - given to man symbolizes the incitement to the courage, virility, to prevail in the social context - given the woman takes the significance of accepting the commitment to defend their honor and the faith given to the blood. For both finally assume the archaic ritual significance to sanction the signing of a contract not yet institutionalized.

The handle is decorated with classic "dice eyes" that are meant to turn the knife in a valuable amulet against the evil eye. After marriage these knives were usually hung on the wall above the bed.
