The **LionSteel Gitano GT01** is a remarkable gentleman's knife, designed by Gudy van Poppel. For this design he became inspired by the classic pocket knives from the South of Europe. You can especially spot the shapes of the classic Navaja model. The name 'Gitano' comes from a group of gypsies that belong to the Roma.



The elegant lines of the Gitano are accentuated by subtle details. The double lines in the titanium bolsters, for instance. But also the lines on the pivot make the whole look more special.



Characterizing about the Gitano is that the blade looks a lot bigger than the handle. This is mostly the result of the combination of the high blade and the relatively slim handle. Another special detail is the special slipjoint mechanism that was added. A slipjoint never really locks the blade. But this ‘Cran Forcé’-slipjoint is doing the best it can! Due to the hard transitions between opened-half-stop-closed it takes a lot of effort to close the blade. Just a little more security on a knife that technically doesn't lock when opened.



You open the LionSteel Gitano with two hands. As such it is legal in many places, especially in combination with the slipjoint. The blade is made from Niolox. This is a German type of steel that retains its sharpness well and is also easy to sharpen.



The LionSteel Gitano is stylish, elegant and practical. A perfect knife for the real gentleman, even though it is also perfect as an EDC pocket knife. A knife with character, a producer with character, for users with character.

Aussergewöhnlich in allen Bereichen! Ein gelungenes Zusammenspiel von Design mit Historie, detailreicher Arbeit und hochwertiger Verarbeitung mit ebenso hochwertigen Materialien. Liegt erstaunlich gut in der Hand, und die Feder hält die Klinge perfekt! Von mir gibt es eine klare Empfehlung!

De elegantie die in dit zakmes zit is voor mij nieuw en uniek. Een Laguiole komt een beetje in de buurt. Prachtige vorm en hoogwaardige materialen. Ook de keuze voor Niolox is gedurfd en onderscheidend van de concurrentie. De grandforcé sluiting is erg stevig hetgeen veiligheid voor de gebruiker betekent. Tot aan de halfstop opent hij soepel waarna hij in de definitieve vergrendeling valt. 

Over de pocketclip kan ik kort zijn. Soms handig maar voelt scherp aan. Bij de houten schalen kan er bij een grote roterende druk op de pocketclip een scheur ontstaan in het hout rondom de bevestigingsschroef. 
Micarta geeft geen problemen.

Al met al een prachtig mes. Ook gezien de geschiedenis van de Gitano. Is het lezen waard.

Dit is een zakmes waar je geen spijt van krijgt. Gewoon kopen.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
