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.

Bastien Coves - French knife maker, founder and owner of Bastinelli Creations. His passion for knives grew out of a 7-year-old boy's fascination with them. Growing up, he was exposed to many models of knives and decided to create his own. Coves gained experience with famous knife makers such as Christian Moretti and François Bignon. His knives are characterized by high quality and unique designs. Coves confesses: “I first created a fully handmade knife in my head before pouring ideas onto paper. Now these custom knives come to life in my workshop, thanks to people who share my passion.” Each of his knives is handmade, which guarantees their uniqueness.
Becut - a stainless steel patented by BESTAR, a unique material that has revolutionized the knife industry and deep-sea fishing. This stainless steel has unparalleled corrosion resistance and strength, even at low temperatures. Thanks to its niobium content, Becut provides exceptional cutting performance, making it an ideal choice for hunting and sporting knives.
Black Idroglider® Stonewashed - The blade has undergone a Stone Washed finish that masks minor scratches . Subsequently, the durability of the blade's surface and cutting edge was enhanced with a scratch-resistant, matte black non-reflective protective coating made of PTFE. It ensures long life and resistance to rust.
Blade - Spear Point with aggressive shape and slightly marked belly, coated with Black Idroglider®. The lightweight blade combined with a high, flat grind (Flat Grind) gives excellent cutting edge geometry and extreme cutting performance. Smooth operation of the blade's opening mechanism, which can be opened with a protruding front flipper fin, allowing right- and left-handed people to operate the knife. A section of the back of the blade is covered with an upper jimping, notched thumb rest for easy control of the knife. The whole thing is locked with the proven and popular liner lock.
Handle - made of Jute Micarta composite, a lightweight material, insensitive to weather conditions, resistant to chemicals and mechanical damage. The texture of the material provides a comfortable and secure grip. The chamfering of the covers eliminates sharp edges, and the fore finger groove made on the front improves grip security. The backspacer to which the grips are attached guarantees the rigidity and strength of the entire structure. In the backspacer there is a hole for threading a safety or decorative cord.
Additional accessories - an open sheath made of high-quality leather, with a clip for gripping the edges of a pocket or belt.
