The handmade hilt with over 60 individual leather strips, and mondonguillo (a decorative braid) in the middle, inspired by an autochthonous mix of the indigenous and gaucho traits. The leather strips are made from horse leather softened and delicately cut by hand. The alpaca finish of the hilt isolates the leather strips from the blade. The stainless steel blade is forged to remain unaltered for decades given its great hardness and metallic composition. The rawhide sheath shows the handmade finish with leather strips.
Blade: 15 cm
Handle: 11 cm
Knife: 26 cm
Due to the nature of the materials and the manual work, each handmade piece is unique. This is part of the beauty of this products. It is expected that the product you receive may vary from the one shown in the photo, always respecting the format, measurments and quality of the materials.
Sterling silver Bombilla with gold details D.W. (Poznan, PL)
Fine product
I would say the product is OK. Parts are not super precisely aligned, but it really doesn't influence the functionality. Its pretty minimalistic in design and this is very good. However, main reason to buy is materials it is made of.
Extremely satisfied with my purchase of this knife. Excellent presentation box and thoughtful storage bag that was included with the box. Good balance, excellent steel, comfortable grip/handle, wonderful etchings on the blade and easy to sharpen. Customs did open the package in the USA, but it was resealed with no further issues. The leather sheath was crafted very well, the only suggestion that I could make would be to attach a belt clip to the sheath. A spot-n and well played purchase.
I purchased one of these wine holders for a friend and had to get one for myself. The craftsmanship is exquisite and it is not only a functional item, it is so beautiful and adds elegance to any table setting. Bravo Vakiano!
