Hand Braided Rawhide Gaucho Knife

This 20cm stainless steel knife is more than just a tool—it’s a reliable companion for your kitchen, grill, (Asado) or outdoor adventures. The high-grade stainless-steel blade stays sharp; resists rust and handles tough cuts with ease.

The star of this knife is the raw leather handle. All hand braided of rawhide leather strips called ‘tientos‘, a lost art of sorts from the days of the Argentine cowboy, the Gaucho! The rawhide gives you a firm, natural grip—even when your hands are wet. Rawhide helps your fingers stay in place, reducing the risk of slipping. That’s especially useful when working in humid or high-heat conditions. Over time, the leather adapts to your hand, creating a personalized fit. It also develops a rich patina, telling the story of every use. Plus, it’s easy to clean—our care video shows you how in just a few steps.

Each knife includes a hand-stitched rawhide sheath, crafted with precision and care. The detailed stitching adds durability while celebrating traditional leatherwork. No two sheaths are the same, giving each knife a unique identity.
