SANTELMO is an enterprise that makes artisanal knives.

Their name is inspired in the physical phenomenon called Saint Elmo’s Fire, when the top of high structures get ionized by the atmosphere and glow blue during thunderstorms. Because of their name, they wanted to evoke an almost religious and magical feel to the brand.

At the same time, their symbol had to be circular in order to be engraved in the knives whilst maintaining legibility.
