Detailed product description

🗡️ Andre de Villiers OTF Automatic Knife – The Power of Speed and Precision Craftsmanship

Instant, smooth, and uncompromising.

This model represents a blend of tactical efficiency and aesthetic perfection—a knife that responds to a single movement of the finger.

Every detail of the construction was designed to achieve absolute balance between functionality, durability, and elegance.

The result is a tool that is equally impressive in use and in the hands of a collector.

Maintenance and care

Clean and dry the blade after every use.

From time to time, apply a small amount of oil to the mechanism track and pivot.

Remove dust and debris with a soft brush or compressed air.

On titanium parts, avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface.

🔪 To maintain a sharp edge, we recommend the Spyderco Tri-Angle Sharpmaker Complete Sharpening System 204MF – ideal for plain edges as well. 🛒 Available on our website Moskito.cz.
