El Cardenal  

Introducing El Cardenal, an old-school friction folder crafted from exquisite materials. This knife has no locking mechanism, making it legal to carry in many countries, including Germany, where it complies with the §42a rule. The pivot tension can be easily adjusted with a Torx screwdriver.  

Each knife comes with a handmade, vegetable-tanned leather sheath.  

El Cardenal is meticulously crafted, featuring stainless steel liners and beryllium spacers for the pivot—a perfect blend of durability and elegance. The Damasteel stainless blade is not only high-performing but also showcases a captivating pattern. Its robust stainless hardware and premium scale materials are ergonomically designed for both comfort and style.  

Each blade has undergone cryogenic hardening to optimise grain structure, resulting in a durable and exceptionally sharp cutting edge.
