Memento Mori Futura

Memento Mori Futura – Futuristic Utility Knife with Ergonomic Ovangkol Handle

This handcrafted unique piece from PAPA KNIVES makes a clear statement for modern kitchen design. As an evolutionary partner in the series, the Memento Mori Futura combines a progressive, futuristic blade shape with the warm, natural feel of a classic precious wood.

The striking blade deliberately breaks with traditional lines. Its aerodynamic, futuristic geometry is not only a visual highlight but also functionally perfectly balanced to enable dynamic and fatigue-free work on the cutting board. Crafted from Swedish Sandvik 12C27 steel and hardened to 60 HRC using a cryo-treatment process, the blade offers extremely high edge retention and durability combined with excellent rust resistance.

The ergonomic handle is made of exquisite Ovangkol wood. This African precious wood is characterized by its distinct, high-contrast striped grain and its striking sense of depth. The heavy, dense wood has been sanded super smooth, allowing the fine, inherent texture of the wood to stand out in a particularly refined way. Designed as a tactile delight, the handle offers absolutely secure and familiar guidance with every cut.
