Professional knife for garden work. It is a handy helper when weeding, grafting or shortening the stem. The semi-matt polished blade is made of stainless steel. The zero-grind flat-ground blade combined with the small blade thickness ensures above average cutting properties.
The knife is opened by pulling on a cutout on the blade. In the open position, the knife is secured by the patented viroblock lock. This lock consists of a steel ring that is located on the handle at the height of the blade's axis of rotation. When the knife is opened, the ring rotates several degrees to cover the gap between the blade and the handle. When fully opened, the blade locks in place. The knife locks in the same way when it is closed again.
The handle of the knife is made of beechwood. To ensure a firm and comfortable grip, the handle is ergonomically shaped.
