THE MAGIC BUTTON FOR HAPPINESS
Have you always thought that happiness couldn't be achieved simply by pressing a button? You were wrong!Don't confuse it with a switchblade or spring-assisted knife, it is a manually operated knife that slides very smoothly thanks to a ball bearing system, but Miura is above all a unique product in the industry thanks to the combination of a button lock system and an integral handle made of solid titanium, features that have never been seen before in industrial knives. These features, together with its fantastic design, led Miura to win the 2022 Blade Show Imported Knife of the Year award in Atlanta.
