Extremely rare triple markings on blade: map of France, wild boar and Jean Tanazacq across the ricasso. Dark leather scabbard. Knife was completed in 1990 which is the last model received from the maker.

As with all listed Jean Tanazacq's knives, this model is in a perfect, immaculate, pristine condition. All these listed knives have been shown in countless French and foreign magazines.This knife made by Jean Taznacq in Maubert-Fontaine (Ardennes) is a Tronçay IV type 1 .It will interest collectors because it is in new condition and has benefited from being in a private cololection.
