Technical analysis of knife properties
- Blade steel: Damascus steel, HRC 62
Damascus steel is a standard of handmade blacksmithing, combining strength and the unique beauty of an undulating pattern. A hardness of 62 HRC ensures outstanding wear resistance and long-term preservation of the cutting edge. This blade perfectly holds the edge and remains sharp for a long time, even with intensive use. However, with high hardness, Damascus steel requires careful care — despite its increased strength, the blade is somewhat more brittle compared to less hard options. - Geometry and dimensions of the blade
The blade thickness of 3.2 mm and length of 145 mm form a universal balance of maneuverability and durability. The 25 mm width allows you to confidently control the knife even when cutting dense or fibrous materials, and the classic "Normal Blade" shape provides an optimal combination of piercing and cutting properties. This geometry is well suited for precise, confident movements, and a wide range of operations — from small tasks to confident chopping and planing. - Handle material and ergonomics
There is no data on the material and length of the handle, so you can judge the quality of holding the knife by its balance and classic shape. A blade with similar parameters usually fits easily in the palm of your hand and is securely fixed even in difficult weather conditions, which is important for universal use, including in tactical tasks. - Corrosion resistance and maintenance
Damascus steel has medium resistance to moisture and corrosion. It is better protected from rust than carbon steels, but requires regular maintenance: after use, it is recommended to wipe the blade dry and, if possible, apply a thin layer of oil. This is especially important when stored for a long time or used in a humid environment. - Easy maintenance
Despite its high hardness, Damascus steel is able to maintain its sharpness for a long time, which reduces the need for frequent sharpening. However, when sharpening is required, it is important to use high-quality abrasives. The process itself is simple for an experienced user, and the unique steel structure allows you to return the cutting edge to almost its original level.
Scope of application, advantages and limitations
- Optimal tasks: tactical use (self-defense, auxiliary tasks), hunting, tourism, field work, collecting. A blade with this shape and strength will perfectly cope with cutting game, planing wood, precise cuts on various materials, and thanks to its expressive appearance, it will decorate any collection or become a worthy gift.
- Minimum restrictions: high hardness reduces the ductility of the blade — it is not recommended to use it for cutting bones, scrap, crushing metal and super-hard objects. It is not suitable for heavy kitchen work that requires frequent contact with bones or frozen food.
- Moisture protection: The knife is not designed for prolonged contact with water and aggressive environments without maintenance. With proper maintenance, the risk of corrosion is minimal.
Unique features and aesthetics
- Damascus steel is a recognized symbol of true craftsmanship: each blade has a unique pattern that cannot be repeated. It is not only a working tool, but also an art object.
- Handmade work guarantees a perfect fit of the parts. Such a knife becomes an extension of the hand and reliably serves in a variety of situations.
- The classic "Normal Blade" shape has historically been used in combat and utility knives, which emphasizes the functionality and emphasized style of the product.
Recommendations and outcome
This knife is an excellent choice for handmade connoisseurs, hunters, tourists, collectors and anyone who is looking for a versatile, reliable, aesthetically perfect tool with excellent cutting properties. For those who appreciate the combination of tradition and practicality, and also want to have an art object with a real character in their arsenal.
Specific recommendations: avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, wipe and lubricate the blade regularly, use it only for its intended purpose in order to maintain the spectacular appearance of Damascus steel and maximum wear resistance.
