Un Ami Français!!!

[kamagong]

kamagong I feel like I am bumbling around in Royalty!! Wirtz, Steri, Bose and Jean-Marc!!
I am humbled!

Knives linked by friendship are the best.

You are most kind!!

'Tis the season to be blessed!! A sweet young postie rang my doorbell, and asked me to sign for a package!! And from this ratty, old box (a disguise!) spilled some delightful surprises!!
Two incredible works of cutlery, some cards and beads!! Cards of greeting: beads so I needn't worry; and two knives that zinged my heart!!!View attachment 2021569View attachment 2021570View attachment 2021571View attachment 2021572An exquisite 13cm. Laguiole by Jerome Latreille, with carbon fiber handles, and an Opinel No.8-sized, hand-forged knife by Davide Steri!!!! If you appreciate French knives, these tick the Holy Grail boxes!!
I had to sit down and ponder what a person does to deserve such Joy!!!
Whatever it is, I will just keep on!! Thank you Jean-Marc!!! Âchillepattada

Doers he use a standard handle or make that as well as the blade?

I shall have to google I am intriqued by the blade and maker.

Nobody,not even the rain has such small hands.

I tried to woo a girl quoting his words while having no understanding of the meaning

Check out the Sardinian Connection thread and Davide Steri Âchillepattada started one for him specifically as well as for
Jérôme Latreiile.

The Steri knife has an interesting blade!! It's made in san mai with two layers of old iron and a edge in C130 German high carbon steel from Achim Wirtz!

I have to ask for clarification… Iron outer layers, not steel?

 

[waynorth]

I have to ask for clarification… Iron outer layers, not steel?

I'm sure he meant steel of lower grade!

What a awesome package to arrive Charlie.
I’m sure we all would agree collectively that you totally deserve this.

Jean-Marc, a very nice package - well done to both Gentlemen
