The Facon is the national knife of Argentina where the Gauchos made it famous
It"s large and simply shaped blade proved ideal for everything from dispatching game and livestock
to repairing tack and saddles to cooking and eating the evening meal.

can trace its roots back to the 14th century where it was widely used
and carried by just about everyone,
from peasant and serf all the way up to the landed nobility.
