Description

The Concept: The Beauty of the Unforeseen

The Arista Knife model was born from a spontaneous creative process: its silhouette emerged from the negative space between two larger forged pieces. Far from being a byproduct, this organic form dictated its own destiny, evolving into a stylized, lightweight knife with a natural elegance that could not have been planned. Hand-forged in Catamarca, Argentina.

The Blade: 1095 Carbon Steel & Bronze Inlays

The 175mm blade is hand-forged from SAE 1095 carbon steel. It features unique bronze inlays applied manually, transforming the steel into a piece of functional jewelry. This meticulous process ensures that the Arista is not just a tool, but a work of art. Explore more in our One-of-a-Kind Pieces collection.

Materials & Balance

The handle is crafted from Black Algarrobo, a noble timber with a deep, closed grain, finished with a solid Bronze bolster that provides the exact weight for perfect balance. The 165g weight makes it extremely agile and sharp. It includes a premium hand-chiseled leather sheath designed to follow the fluid lines of the piece. Part of our Heritage & Silverwork line.
