Viper

Viper is a brand of sport knives manufactured by Tecnocut snc. The company was founded in 1987 in Maniago, Italy. Tecnocut is committed to producing high-quality products by combining advanced manufacturing techniques with traditional craftsmanship. In 1992, the company produced its first series of Damascus steel blades and has since made a name for itself in the industrial production of Damascus steel and wire Damascus. The company has also introduced new materials such as high-contrast, stainless, and super stainless Damascus steel, and new models, including fixed blades, to meet market trends and changing customer needs.

Viper has also partnered with new designers to create a range of high-tech folding knives featuring liner lock, back lock, and frame lock mechanisms, crafted from advanced materials such as sintered steels, carbon, and titanium. An example of this approach is the Magà, a knife developed in collaboration with martial arts expert Boris Manasherov. It uses ball bearings at the pivot and is made from Bohler N690Co and M390 Microclean steels, treated with state-of-the-art hardening processes and modern surface treatments such as PVD coating or bead blasting.

In addition to its focus on innovation, Viper also values its roots, continuing to use rare and valuable materials for its products such as noble rootwoods, exotic woods, deer, and stag horn. The brand has also partnered with knifemaker Fabrizio Silvestrelli (also known as Silvester) to develop a range of gentlemen's knives, specialty knives, tactical knives, and a "Regionali" series of traditional knives updated with the innovative "Action Stopper System." Viper has also ventured into the kitchen market, offering steak and table knife series and a champagne saber called Mathusalem, as well as the award-winning Sakura kitchen knife series.

In its 30-year history, Viper has consistently produced high-quality knives for passionate users and diversified its activities by collaborating with other famous knife manufacturers, designers, and established brands as an OEM manufacturer. The brand's strong reputation has led to partnerships with some of the most respected professionals in the knife industry.
