Perfect Pyrite Project-The AficionadoThe Aficionado If you know you know. Sometimes theres no room for anything but the best, and the Aficionado tier offers just that, the most premium materials possible for those in the know. This version of the Pyrite is our love letter to the knife nerds that have supported us over these past 5 years and weve dressed up these 3 models to reflect not only what we know our customers love to see but what we at Artisan love so much about making knives.
