Cosimo De BENEDETTO

[RayseM]

Hello Ray,
Wow , you mean a knife is more dangerous with 1/2 stop than without ?
I would have thought the opposite.
But as Rufus I think it would be easy for Cosimo to make a knife without it .

Cheers

YES, I prefer a knife blade that opens with one motion. Just me

 

[Will Power]

RayseM well, as usual I'm odd man out (fortunately ) My Cosimo is more in the Cam Tang direction definitely, it's rounded and the stop is not at all profound, on closing from there it is mild not danger sprung.

I too much prefer knives without HS as I like the smooth controlled opening and closing.

I'm sure he will discuss these needs with you if you wish

I love this Cosimo Zulu knife. The wood handle is wonderful and makes it feel like you have a new knife every time you use it.

(No need to buy a new knife anymore.)

That is a beautiful handle. Ironwood?

Hey Steve. This morning I got some pictures from Cosimo of a Eureka Jack he is getting ready to send on its way. It sure came out great. I especially like the curves. And the bolster treatment is well…check it out. Thanks for the pic Cosimo.

The Eureka Jack from Cosimo arrived. Will, it does have a wrap around spring on the secondary. Half stops too. The usual fantastic jigging. Threaded and pinched bolsters. I especially like the cap end and how it comes to a point. Beautiful curves. I love it. Here’s some pictures.

There is everything to like about that beauty Kurt. Well done, from bolster to wraparound spring.

Thanks Bob. Cosimo builds great knives. I’ve been in full raccoon mode. Hope your golfing went well.

Don't go rubbing that sweet jigging smooth.
I enjoy torturing my son in law, golfing.

Now, leave Cosimo alone so he can finish my knives.

I received my first Cosimo De Benedetto knife this past week, a beautiful Lambfoot model with fluted bolsters.
It makes for a wonderful pair sitting next to Charlie's exquisite Waynorth model.

It's an honor to have my Lambfoot compared to Cosimo's! The talent of Bill's GEC team, and a talented Maker's skills are both on display here!!
We indeed live in a brilliant age of Traditional Cutlery!!!

It is a very special pleasure to own both Charlie. Two fine pieces of timeless cutlery.
