canif

“Il Canif”, French for pencil sharpener, is a tiny and very beautiful folding name. The name comes from the fact that it was originally used to sharpen cane, or reed rush. The blade in AISI 420 steel features the historical Alessi logo from the Fifties, inserted to underscore the rediscovery of an old instrument. The tip is slightly rounded, while the handle in stainless steel has a hollowed-out shape that makes it comfortable to hold. The product also vaunts a practical aluminium holster; another proof of the attentive design of every detail of this product.
