A large oval blade and full handle distinguish this design from the others - the blade is designed to resemble a leaf (foglia). This shape is best for cutting salumi and harder cheeses. A beautiful folding knife, the handle is made of Italian water buffalo horn.
While dining in Verona at 12 Apostoli, we fell in love with the tableware and had to track it down. It turned out to be hand made by the craftsmen of the Saladini family in Scarperia just north of Florence. Scarperia is an ancient medieval village built by the Florentine Republic in the 14th century. It is known as "the town of knives" and justifiably so, as the art of manufacturing fine knives has been ongoing since the village was first settled. Their knives use the highest quality stainless steel and natural materials such as ox horn, water buffalo horn and Tuscan olive wood for their handles.
