Care instructions

To keep your Vert’Tige pieces in perfect condition:

  • Hand wash only, in clear water with a soft sponge.
  • Do not leave to soak: prolonged moisture is the enemy of wood and steel. Dry immediately after each use, especially where the blade meets the handle.
  • Regularly nourish the handle with wax or any plant-based oil to preserve the natural qualities of the French Guiana wood and its resistance to tropical conditions.
Shipping and warranty
  • Every Vert’Tige piece is crafted with care and respect for nature. Your order usually ships within 3 to 10 working days.
  • Your satisfaction is our priority: you have 14 days to return any product that does not suit you.
  • Our pieces carry a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, upon presentation of your proof of purchase. This warranty covers original manufacturing defects.

The d'Estaing hunting dagger belongs to tradition: a spring-loaded folding dagger, 31 cm (12.2 in) long once open, whose 18.5 cm (7.3 in) blade in 12C27 stainless steel is 2.2 cm wide. The spring holds the blade firmly in place. It is a piece of character for lovers of traditional knives.

Its handle is made of Bois Serpent (snakewood), a wood from French Guiana selected by Vert'Tige and one of the most sought-after in French Amazonia. The sinuous figure, dark brown on a light ground, evokes the scales of a snake and never repeats: every handle is unique. Vert'Tige, a cutlery house in Rémire-Montjoly recognized by the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (Living Heritage Company) label, chooses these woods with the experience acquired since 1987.

The dagger comes with its leather sheath. After use, wipe and dry the blade without delay; a little wax or vegetable oil on the wood now and then will keep its luster, and the dishwasher is to be banished. Lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. Engraving is available on the blade or the handle, for a gift or a keepsake from French Guiana unlike any other.
