Knife - Essential Tool for Camping, Outdoor Adventure and collection

Benjamin Jeanjean is a transalpine artist living in the French Basque Country. He works as an illustrator, visual artist, and tattoo artist, blending black humor, nonsense, and symbolism through a figurative style rich in detail.  He has expressed his vision of the cosmos on the handle of the traditional N°08 pocket knife.

The N°08 Cosmos Benjamin Jeanjean evokes a symbolic exploration of the cosmos: a solar face representing universal balance, the phases of the moon recalling the eternal cycle of time, a cosmic canvas represented by geometric patterns... The artist has played on a duality that blends tradition and modernity.

The pocket knife has a PEFC hornbeam handle with sublimation decoration and an 8.5 cm stainless steel blade with black PVD treatment. It comes with a box, which echoes the motifs of the knife, and a postcard.

Craftsmanship is beautiful because it is varied

The colours of the materials from which the handicrafts are made may vary from those shown in the pictures.

Horn, wood and cornotech are raw materials that by their nature have a marked variability from one supply to another: that's the beauty of fine materials. Add craftsmanship, where the craftsman's hand never makes the same gesture: that's the beauty of fine workmanship. Combine all this and you have a product that is always different and unique. And always different from that unique and unrepeatable product that, necessarily, we have to photograph if we want you to understand what we are talking about and what we are offering you.

The N°08 Courchevel 2023 knife pays homage to the Eclipse phenomenon trail!

The hornbeam wood handle is decorated by sublimation and offers a unique result. The knife is also equipped with an 8.5 cm stainless steel blade and a Virobloc safety ring.

This limited edition is a perfect reminder of this winter, which celebrates the Ski World Championships that will take place in Savoie, in the Opinel area.

The legendary BuckMaster 184 Survival Knife is currently conceived and designed specifically for the Navy SEAL Team in 1980. He was created by CJ Buck (CEO of Buck Knives) and designed a small business, Qual-A-Tec, in 1981 in California. The BuckMaster is the American icon of the coltellis that emerged in the '80s and has contributed to the creation of the famous M9 bayonetta of the American army. The production was 2600 examples all'anno.

The brand new model, coming from the private collection, comes from the first production, dating back to 1984. Globally in perfect condition, only damaged and used. Only deprived of scatola.

Note: The characteristics, brief, are data of the presence of due arpioni/ganci smontabili a vite. The function of the quest is simple ancoraggio. This coltello may be infatti used as the lancio's gancio fissando una corda all'anello present sul pomello. The product guarantees a tenuta of fine arpioni at 600 libbre. I Seals della Marina, nello specifico, avevano richiesto un coltello che potesse essere usato sott'acqua per poter ancorare i mezzi ad un punto de fissaggio subacqueo, ed ecco il reason della totale costruzione en acciaio.
