Windmill Knives - Mini-Yatagan - cherry wood

The Mini-Yatagan belongs to our line „Unikate aus Tradition“, which comprises a small assortment of knives with a special history, shape and traditional craftmanship.  The shape of the Yatagan blade can be originally traced back to the Arabian scimitar.  Used as a bayonet attachment at the time of Napoleon, later in Germany called „Solingen Turk“ and after World War II named „American“, this knife really created its own cosmopolitan story. Although it has felt all these influences it stayed unchanged in its form -  a knife with beauty and  well-balanced.
Elegant in curve and shape, the Mini-Yatagan is a very sharp tool which can be used for cleaning vegetables, chopping herbs or coring fruits.
The blade is made from chrome-molybdenum-vanadium-steel.
