MARIANO YANNONI
A few years ago during the chaos that is the Blade Show, I was intent to meet world renowned Knife Maker Claudio Sobral of CAS knives. After talking with Claudio he introduced me to his good friend, also a Knife Maker ~ and that Maker was Mariano Yannoni. I was thrilled to see that Mariano still had a few knives on his table, so after speaking with him and inspecting his knives ~ I purchased everything Mariano had left! I am very proud to be able to offer his knives to my Customers.

~ Direct from the Maker ~
Mariano Yannoni is a special friend of world renowned Knife Make Claudio Sobral and his Brother. This very special model was designed by Claudio during his lengthy hospital stay and the original design was later presented to Mariano, which caused Mariano both great joy and not a small amount of apprehension! (You are welcome to read the whole story of this model on Mariano’s Instagram Page)
This model was aptly named the Casnoni
This is an Elegant but Wicked Knife that was Hand Crafted with a beautiful Copper Lightning Strike Carbon Fiber bolster and gorgeous Ironwood Handle with a Hand Forged W2 Steel Blade with dramatic Hamon.
The W2 Blade was Forged to Shape and then Hand Ground by Mariano. It is 1 1/2″ Wide at the base and has a Labor Intensive Hand Rubbed finish and and an expert Differential Heat Treatment as evidenced by the Amazing Hamon on the blade. This type of Heat Treat greatly increases the strength of the blade by providing a Razor Sharp 60-61 Rc edge but leaves the Spine softer.
The handle provides a very comfortable Full Size Grip. The addition of the Double Integral Guard provides extra security in both the Forward and Reverse grip.
