Buter Knife

2023
Design

Produced by Florentine Knife
The Table Knife Project

This project starts discovering the Scotch Hand tool. This was used as butter churned, pressing the butter against the side of the butter tub so that any excess buttermilk liquid forming in the fat pockets of the butter, would be forced out to stiffen the consistency of the butter.
The wood tool has several carved lines all over the surface. These useful ones are used on the knife to generate a special way to spread butter. The butter knife is made in brass, a high corrosion resistance material. Also comes with a Iroko wood pad to put the butter. Both pieces are carved by a cnc machine and polished by hand.
