Description: Born in Madrid in 1980, Miguel Barbudo grew up in the small mountain town of Valdemaqueda, working in his father's forge. From an early age he learned the trade by making furniture and forging wrought iron crafts. He had the privilege of entering and training at the School of Traditional Forging and Restoration of the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial, where he learned from some of the best artisans who worked in the facilities containing original pieces from the 17th century. After returning to the family forge, he began to spend some of his time making knives for local hunters on the side of his normal forging and welding work. He became a full time knifemaker in 2015 as cutlery became the majority of his business. His work utilizes modern materials and design, often incorporating influences of his home country of Spain.
This Magallanes folder named for the mountainous region in Chile is the perfect EDC for the cigar smoker. The large cutout in the handle, coupled with a razor sharp, single bevel M390 blade make for nice, clean cigar cuts.
The blade is M390 stainless steel with a hand rubbed satin finish. M390 is a super-steel created by Bohler in Austria. It takes an incredibly sharp edge and holds onto it due to a high concentration of vanadium and chromium carbides. Its unique powder metallurgical process also promotes a uniform carbide distribution and clean steel properties, making M390 a popular steel used in surgical cutting instruments and in applications requiring a high finish. It offers excellent corrosion resistance due to its high concentration of chromium.
The friction folder design has smooth and consistent action. The external torx pivot allows the action to be adjusted to your preferred tension.
Handle scales are Toxic Storm FatCarbon, contoured to provide a comfortable grip. The anodized titanium liners and backbar keep the knife extremely light, yet strong. At only 2.4 ounces, you'll hardly notice the knife is on you until you need it.
Excellent work throughout!
