Vesuvio Knife

The Vesuvio blade is made of MD7 steel — an alloy of Carbon (0.7%), Chromium (17%), Molybdenum (1.3%), Nickel (0.6%) and Vanadium (0.1%), which ensures high hardness (58-59 HRC) and a durable cutting edge.

No, the knife is delivered without a sheath. The genuine leather sheath, made specifically for this model, can be added separately directly on the product page.

Wash by hand immediately after use, wipe the knife with a soft cloth and dry thoroughly. Do not use a dishwasher and sharpen periodically on a wet stone or professional sharpening stone. For professional maintenance, we recommend the DACOBI S3 sharpening kit.

All DACOBI knives, including the Vesuvio, come with a 10-year DACOBI warranty against material and manufacturing defects, with proper maintenance.

Yes. The DACOBI Vesuvio belongs to the DACOBI "Adventure Knives" and "Camping Knives" collections — the durable MD7 steel blade and pakkawood handle withstand outdoor use well.

The 10-year warranty covers any defect arising from correct use of DACOBI products or any manufacturing defects.

Depending on the steel used, DACOBI knives need different care. You'll find all the information you need to maintain your knife properly on each product page and inside your order.

High-carbon steel blades can develop a patina if not cared for properly. A patina is a natural protective layer on carbon steel that shields the blade from further oxidation and gives it a hardened finish. It forms as the surface oxidises, and the process speeds up when the knife meets various acids. You can recognise a patina by its characteristic colours: first golden yellow, then deep blue, then violet, and finally grey that darkens over time. If you notice red rust spots, remove them.
