This special version adds a bold touch of color to the iconic design with its red powder-coated metal handle – eye-catching, timeless and unmistakably classic. The sturdy metal handle is tough and built for everyday use. At the end of the handle, a small section of the coating has been sanded off, revealing the bare metal beneath. This gives each knife a unique, slightly vintage character. Please note: this exposed area is more prone to rust and should be kept dry and occasionally maintained.
