Thanks a lot, Jack!!!Many thanks JJ, your cool Catt looks very capable, nice range of blades and tools
Your Hartshead looks very cool in Rosewood and that Queen stag bone is sweet, too; awesome pairing!Have a good Friday everyone
Thanks! This one isn't from Sardinia, it is a regional knife, from Maremma which is in southern Tuscany. These knives from Consigli have rather stout springs and incredible walk and talk. Unfortunately, unless you buy direct from Italy, you are most likely out of luck.Love those traditional Sardinian knives, super elegant. Wish they were easier to find in the US!

Great pics John, I’ve got a Shoei head toAs you would expect of me I put Sudsy to use today.
Popped my first cap and found another use for the blade tip,opening nuts
I am now in Portugal.

The Maremmano pattern is definitely not originally from Sardinia, but rather from Maremma, hence the name. I'm not 100% sure what all of the Sardinian patterns are, but from what I understand (probably wrong
) there are three basic patterns: Pattada, Arburesa, Lametta.
