The Fraraccio Old School Sfilato is a slender traditional folder at 4.25 inches closed, pairing a 3.75-inch satin stainless spear blade with a hammered brass handle. Made in Italy.
Sfilato means drawn out or slimmed, and it describes the shape: a long, narrow profile that has flat rather than filling a hand. The spear blade is symmetrical, with the point on the centerline, which suits the elegance of the pattern. The hammered brass is the feature people buy this for, each dimple struck rather than molded so the pattern varies slightly from knife to knife, and brass develops a patina with handling that many owners deliberately encourage.
Fraraccio has worked in Campobasso since 1888, and this pattern belongs to the southern Italian tradition of slim, decorated folders rather than the stouter northern working knives. Explore more Traditional Knives.
