The Kimen Knife takes its name from the “Mapudungun” language which means “Teach-Learn.” This tool was created by its designer with the purpose of introducing children to the knowledge of bushcraft and survival skills. Its design is very safe, with a rounded tip and a handle design that prevents the hand from moving forward. It can also be used by adults, as a complementary knife
