La Cantina - Geordie (Tamarind Wood)
This Geordie model from Simone Milanesi (La Cantina) is a refined front-flipping inset-lock folder crafted with meticulous attention to detail. The blade is made from RWL34 hardened to 60 HRC, finished with a high polish and DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating for exceptional durability and a striking appearance.
The handle features Tamarind wood scales, complemented by a white G10 spacer and a carbon-fiber pivot surround that adds both visual depth and structural elegance. Ceramic bearings ensure an ultra-smooth action, while the custom tip-up pocket clip and steel liners, also treated with DLC, complete the premium build.
An exceptionally elegant gentleman’s knife, this piece comes brand-new from the maker, at the Blade Show—a standout addition to any discerning collection.
Blade length: 2 7/8"
Closed: 4"
Case/sheath: This knife rests in a custom leather La Cantina logo zippered pouch which is housed in a presentation box that has a trick opener (the end with the La Cantina logo turns 90 degrees which facilitates a system of magnets that will allow the box to open). A Certificate of Authenticity is included.
The last two pictures are in natural light to show how the DLC looks with different lighting/angles.
