This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Berus 1 Green Canvas Micarta, design by Tommaso Rumici. Forged from a single piece of steel, this lightweight 95g compact multi-function knife from the Italian brand Viper. It is characterised by a comfortable handle and a razor sharp, short strong blade with a rounded cutting edge.
M390 Microclean® - head made of the highest quality modern powder steel with extremely high resistance to corrosion and abrasion. High-chromium vanadium-doped steel with a hardness of 59-61 HRC, cryogenically treated. Manufactured in Böhler-Uddeholm steelworks in Austria.
Blade - Drop point with clearly marked belly was finished with Stone Washed coating masking minor scratches. The small thickness of the blade in combination with the high, flat grind gives us an extremely effective cutting tool. Spine jimping, a notched support on the back of the blade and finger choil, an undercut for the index finger provide precise control of the cutting direction.
Handle - is the result of research in the field of ergonomics, despite its size, provides a firm grip. Made of green Canvas Micarta laminate, riveted directly to the blank, it ensures practically indestructible construction. The rounded shape of the covers eliminates sharp edges. At the back of the handle an enlarged lanyard hole, i.e. a hole for attaching a safety line.
Scabbard - when designing, great emphasis was placed on the ease of carrying and retrieving the knife. Flat, lightweight holster made of Kydex material. It comes with the UltiClip, a practical multi-position clip which can be attached to a pocket or trouser belt. This allows the Berus to be used as a clinch pick (short knife for ultimate defence in a clinch).

Additionally, the kydex scabbard of the Berus is compatible with the Tek-Lok mount as well as it can be hung around the neck like a neck knife.
