That's a handsome rig.

Good to see you back, Â! Thanks for the look at that beauty!

For those who are unaware of the pattern..
A corrina is basically a fixed blade version of a pattadesa.
Although it might not be my favourite all around blade shape, this pattern (just like its folding twin) excels in the kitchen and at food prep in general. It's halfway between a paring knife and a short fillet blade, and might very well be the only knife you need in a kitchen, depending on your cooking style. Try it

The blade of this knife has been made by Davide Steri for a balboo handle made years ago by Aliaswonder a french knife-maker specialized in bamboo carving. The shape of the blade is typically sardinian and adapted to this style of knife.

PS : if you haven't already seen it here is the first collab between this great french craftman and two of my sardinian best friends

A knife to be very proud of! It exudes an atmosphere: like it was made in the mountains but close to the sea I admire the worked and angled bolster very much.:thumbup:

Thank you on behalf of my country.
Sardinia has been spared from the earthquake, but other parts of the country haven't been that lucky
As for this thread, I might have something to post (and send) quite soon
