The
Corsican flick-knife
This knife is made of exotic wood species or
olive wood from Corsica, an island of contrasts, welcoming, far
and yet near at the same time. When the Corsican shepherd takes
his knife out of his pocket, the snapping of the spring makes people
who may not have heard it jump. He places it conspicuously beside
his plate and compels everyone's respect.
