Peter Marzitelli Custom Knives, dinosaur knife-making and hand made knife artist

These are some of the knife models that I am currently producing

Because I utilize a number of different handle materials, bolster materials and graphics in various combinations, I may have available knives for sale that are not depicted accurately in these photos.

To view my latest in stock knives, please email your request to info@marzknives.com and I will send you up to date photos of what’s brand new from my workshop.

Puma Skinner $295 Click image to enlarge	Steel type: 154CM @ RC 59/60 hardness Steel thickness: .150 in Handle material: Lignum Vitae Bolster material: Grey Canvas Micarta Fittings: Stainless Steel Blade length: 3-3/4" Overall length: 8-5/8" Knife weight: 6.5 oz Graphics: "Chargine Bison" motif on blade Other: All purpose blade design good for skinning, food prep and general utility with great blade geometry for slicing. This old style blade was origionally adapted from turn of the century English butcher knives. When bison was a valuable meat source for the early pioneers of our country, this knife would have faired well. I borrowed this bison design from a 26 thousand year old cave painting.
Puma Striker D $345 Click image to enlarge	Steel type: 154CM @ RC 59/60 hardness Steel thickness: .150 in Handle material: Diamondwood assorted colors Bolster material: Grey Canvas Micarta Fittings: Stainless Steel Blade length: 5" Overall length: 10" Knife weight: 6.6 oz Other: All around general purpose outdoor utility knife. Diamondwood and micarta scales make this knife impervious to water, blood, chemicals, etc… This long straight clip point blade is excellent for tip penetration and fine detailed cutting when the need arises. The smallest splinter can be removed with this tip. I wouldn’t go hiking without it!
Cyborg I $420 Click image to enlarge	Steel type: 154CM @ RC 59/60 hardness Steel thickness: .150 in Handle material: Grey Canvas Micarta with printed circuit board inlays Bolster material: One piece handle Fittings: Brass Blade length: 5" Overall length: 10" Knife weight: 7.2 oz Graphics: "Cyborg skull" motif on blade Other: This heavy duty utility-tactical knife can take a beating. Awesome handle contouring for grip, exposed butt for pounding, multiple lanyard holes for tying or spear making, 2 position assertive thumb grip placement, and the tip? I call the tip “Diamond Point” It’s ground horizontally and vertically at an abrupt 80 degree angle so it will hold up when tip penetration is critical. However, unlike many heavy duty tacticals, this one can slice a tomato super thin.
Sheath Click image to enlarge	All knives come with a heavy duty hand made leather sheath. Each sheath is precisely designed to fit every knife model to exacting tolerances.The sheath is equipped with a sturdy abs swivel clip which allows it to be carried in eight different positions. This way the knife can be carried vertically, horizontally, or at different angles and the angle can be adjusted while being carried. The average weight per sheath for a 9” knife is approx. 3.5 oz.
