Knife collected from a private collection in like new condition with original box - Knife made in 2017 by the famous Japanese knifemaker Takeshi Saji - The knife is supplied together with the sheath made by Saji, with an additional sheath made by the Italian cutler Simone Tonolli. This second sheath allows horizontal attachment to the belt. Checked and certified by our internal laboratory.

Takeshi Saji was born in 1948 in Takefu (Fukui prefecture), a city located roughly in the center of Japan and in the heart of an area for centuries devoted to the production of blades. His workshop is still there, built around the oven thanks to which, for several years now, Takeshi Saji has been forging steel (especially damascus) with which he makes various models of traditional Japanese knives. The choice of materials for the finishes (mainly natural), the essential lines - evocative of use - and the chromatic combinations of rare impact make his creations unique and unmistakable in the panorama of world cutlery and, at home, they have earned him the prestigious title of Master.

THE CAC® GIGN - Limited Edition 250 ex.

The Intervention Groupe de la Gendarmerie Nationale (GIGN) is an elite unit of the French National Gendarmerie specializing in counter-terrorism actions, in the freeing of hostages and in special operations.

LE CAC® officially chosen by the French Army

This knife is a true concentrate of all the advanced technologies that one would expect from an operational knife. The blade is in Nitrox®, with a PA6 handle

The version of the C.A.C currently supplied to the army, with the official logo on the blade and coyote handle is not available for sale to the civilian.

The CAC ® is the third knife produced by Tarrerias - Bonjean designed for the French army. Its uncompromising design, lightness and strength make the CAC® an exceptional knife. Much more technical and ambitious than its predecessors, the CAC® is TB's response to the request expressed by the French army, namely to design a sturdy and ambidextrous knife with one-handed opening and closing. To create this exceptional knife, Tarrerias - Bonjean collaborated with Philippe Perotti, a former member of the French special forces and author of dozens of books on shooting. Its proven track record in hand-to-hand combat has maximized the efficiency of knife use to make the CAC® the ideal companion for French troops in all operational theaters. The locking mechanism of the CAC® is extremely robust and guarantees perfect locking of the blade in the open position.

TB has also integrated the safe blade locking mechanism by moving the axis on the CAC®. This mechanism is extremely robust and guarantees perfect locking of the blade in the open position.

The CAC® was officially selected in 2017 by the French army, compared to the competitors' offer, for its performance and value for money. Its distribution in the various corps began at the beginning of 2018 and will largely equip our French at least until 2022.

Perfectly resistant to corrosion, the blade is made of Nitrox®. The CAC® also has a glass breaker, a belt cutter and a reversible belt clip.

The handle is composed of two polymer plates loaded with glass fibers. These plates are screwed to the mechanism by means of stainless steel screws, one of which cleverly houses a strap cutter blade. This interchangeable, curved blade is designed to cut through straps, ropes and seat belts for easy extraction in the event of an accident.

Handle: in PA6 FV
Blade length: 85mm.

LE CAC® scelto ufficialmente dell'Esercito Francese

Questo coltello è un vero concentrato di tutte le tecnologie avanzate che ci si aspetterebbe da un coltello operativo. La lama è in Nitrox®,  con manicatura in PA6

La versione del C.A.C attualmente in dotazione all'esercito, con logo ufficiale sulla lama e impugnatura in coyote non è disponibile per la vendita al civile.

Il CAC ® è il terzo coltello prdotto dalla Tarrerias - Bonjean progettato per l'esercito francese. Il suo design senza compromessi, leggerezza e robustezza fanno del CAC® un coltello eccezionale. Molto più tecnico e ambizioso dei suoi predecessori, il CAC® è la risposta di TB alla richiesta espressa dall'esercito francese, ovvero quella di progettare un coltello robusto e ambidestro con apertura e chiusura con una sola mano. Per creare questo eccezionale coltello, Tarrerias - Bonjean ha collaborato con Philippe Perotti, ex appartenente alle forze speciali francesi e autore di decine di libri sul tiro. La sua comprovata esperienza nel combattimento corpo a corpo ha massimizzato l'efficienza dell'uso del coltello per rendere il CAC® il compagno ideale per le truppe francesi in tutti i teatri operativi. Il meccanismo di bloccaggio del CAC® è estremamente robusto e garantisce un perfetto bloccaggio della lama in posizione aperta.

TB ha anche integrato il meccanismo di bloccaggio sicuro della lama spostando l'asse sul CAC®. Questo meccanismo è estremamente robusto e garantisce un perfetto bloccaggio della lama in posizione aperta.

Il CAC® è stato ufficialmente selezionato nel 2017 dall'esercito francese, rispetto all'offerta dei competitor, per le sue prestazioni, e rapporto qualità prezzo. La sua distribuzione nei vari corpi d'armata è iniziata all'inizio del 2018 e equipaggerà in gran parte i nostri francesi almeno fino al 2022.

Perfettamente resistente alla corrosione, la lama è realizzata in Nitrox®. Il CAC® ha anche un rompivetro, un taglia cinture e una clip da cintura reversibile.

Il manico è composto da due piastre in polimero caricato con fibre di vetro. Queste piastre sono avvitate al meccanismo tramite viti in acciaio inossidabile, una delle quali ospita abilmente una lama taglia reggetta. Questa lama curva e intercambiabile è progettata per tagliare cinghie, corde e cinture di sicurezza per facilitare l'estrazione in caso di incidente.

Takeshi Saji was born in 1948 in Takefu (Fukui prefecture), a city located roughly in the center of Japan and in the heart of an area for centuries devoted to the production of blades. His workshop is still there, built around the oven thanks to which, for several years now, Takeshi Saji has been forging steel (especially damascus) with which he makes various models of traditional Japanese knives. The choice of materials for the finishes (mainly natural), the essential lines - evocative of use - and the chromatic combinations of rare impact make his creations unique and unmistakable in the panorama of world cutlery and, at home, they have earned him the prestigious title of Master.

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.
