Handle scales made of precious dark-green jade. Due to its beauty, this precious stone has had a very strong attraction for mankind for many thousands of years. In many cultures, jade was considered as a lucky or protective stone. Furthermore, the stone is attributed a healing affect with regard to kidney diseases its Greek name "Nephrite" means "kidney". The jade used here (also called Nephrit or Canada jade) was gained from the polar jade mine in British Columbia in Canada.

It needs to be shaped in time-consuming procedures through sawing, drilling and cutting.

The rounded shape of the handle lends the knife a very comfortable touch. Comes with a pouch made of ecologically tanned hippopotamus leather and in an attractive gift and storage box.
