The Don Carlos Crescent Knife Walnut is the ideal professional tool for leather, saddlery, and flooring work. The sharp sickle-shaped blade made of C75 carbon steel (59–60 HRC) ensures long-lasting sharpness and precision when trimming seams, joints, or leather edges. Thanks to the hollow grind, friction is minimized, allowing for exceptionally clean cuts. The ergonomic handle made of fine walnut wood, crafted in our Solingen workshop, offers perfect balance and a secure grip – even under moist conditions. With a 10 cm blade and a compact total length of 22 cm, it allows you to handle any manual task with ease. As carbon steel is more prone to corrosion, we recommend gentle hand washing and immediate drying after each use. Maintain your knife regularly with special blade oil to prevent rust and preserve its legendary edge retention.
