FilMam Portugese Knives

#1

Post by SpyderEdgeForever »

I hope I am spelling their name right: I want to introduce you all to MAM Knives of Portugal. They appear to operate along similiar lines to the French Opinel, Nontron, and other knives, and are very similiar to other Mediterranean and Southern European knives such as Italian and Sicilian knives. They use German stainless steel and wood and other materials and are very good and actually inexpensive.

Here is their main website:

You can also find them from US Cutlers and retailers.

The key words here are also:

Navalhas = Razors
Facas = Knives


Some of their knives have more "squared" handles but others have smoother more curved and ergonomic ones.

They even have Wharncliffe and Sheepsfoot shaped blades:
