Fraraccio "Permesso dalla Legge" – Traditional Mozzetta of the Kingdom of Naples – White ABS – 420 INOX Category Catawiki Collector knives – Italian traditional knives – Contemporary craftsmanship Description Put up for auction this splendid specimen of the famous model "Permesso dalla Legge", handcrafted by Michele Fraraccio in the early 2000s and inspired by the historic tradition of the Neapolitan Mozzetta, one of the most distinctive knives of southern Italy. The Mozzetta originated in the territory of the former Kingdom of Naples following regulations that limited the use of particularly offensive tips in pocket knives. From this historical evolution derived the typical blade with a truncated tip and a distinctive profile, which still today makes this model immediately recognizable. The inscription "Permesso dalla Legge" directly recalls this popular tradition, which over time became a true historical designation for this kind of knife. This specimen features an elegant glossy white ABS handle, enhanced by a brass head and terminal ring, elements that give the knife a refined and distinctive appearance. The blade is made of 420 INOX steel, a material valued for good corrosion resistance, reliability, and ease of maintenance. The clean lines and the particular blade shape make the Mozzetta one of the most sought-after traditional Italian knives by regional knife-collectors.

Its blade with no tip emerged from the need to respect the regulations of the Bourbon era, which limited the spread of sharp-tipped knives. Since then the model has remained deeply rooted in the popular culture of southern Italy, becoming one of the symbols of traditional knifemaking of the Kingdom of Naples. Condition NEW. The knife has never been used and is carefully preserved. The blade is intact and well preserved, smooth operation, handle in excellent condition.
