Bradva is an innovative and sustainable approach to professional hand tools which typically use toxic fiber glass and resins in their constructions. Flax fibers derived from the linen plant offer the same technical characteristics as glass fibers with added benefit of being natural and having excellent vibration dampening characteristics. Bradva's handle is not over moulded onto the blade as in other professional tools. Rather, its wedge mechanism allows the blade and handle to be replaced if damaged, thus positioning the materials in the circularity of the products life-cycle.
