A WARZENSCHWEIN is equipped with two pairs of tusks. At the top, these elongated canines can grow up to sixty centimeters long; at the bottom, thirteen are enough to impress. To avoid having to spend half the day feeding, the animals prefer to eat nutritious roots and onions. Two warts under its eyes, thickened skin and bristles to ward off enemy tusks give it its name.
PLEIN MANCHE stands for full grip. No mitres, i.e. no metal end pieces, enclose the handle scales. This saves weight and forces the knifemaker to work out the planking up to the end points, but always requires careful handling. Even a tusk can break if dropped on a hard surface. As a preventative measure, a shepherd's cross made of seven pins was inserted. And to make the folding knife particularly impressive, the master knifemaker has demonstrated his skills with a DOUBLE PLATINUM. Using a file and awl guided by his hand, fine chiseling is applied to the matt metal.
