Gudy van Poppel's idea behind the Gitano was to make a folding knife loosely based on old Southern European folding knives but in an updated style. What he likes about these knives are their elegant lines and often large blades in relation to the handles. LionSteel loved Gudy's idea and decided to start this collaboration with him and Tools For Gents that helped them develop the final version. The Gitano is an EDC folding knife that joins the "Tradition by LionSteel" collection.
The Gitano comes with a wide Niolox stainless steel clip point blade and slender, ergonomic handle. It is available with 6Al4V titanium bolsters and liners, while the scales can be made of olive wood, Santos wood, green canvas Micarta, black G10 or carbon fiber. It's incredibly stout and lightweight for its size and we can safely say that you won't find another knife like this. The Gitano is the elegant slipjoint knife to carry with you in every situation.
This is a pre owned knife. The knife pictured is the actual knife for sale. Comes in the original box with all accessories.
