Blade steel: X12MF is a high—alloy tool steel known for its excellent wear resistance and hardness. Hardness at the level of 61-62 HRC ensures reliable retention of the cutting edge, even with intensive use. Such steel is resistant to wear and has good cutting properties, while it requires careful attention to corrosion, as it is inferior to stainless alloys in terms of moisture resistance.Technical specifications and features
Blade thickness: 2.4 mm, length: 148 mm, width: 32 mm — the profile of the blade provides an excellent balance between strength and maneuverability. This geometry is ideal for creating a universal knife suitable for both planing and fine work.
Blade shape: Normal Blade is a universal classic, great for most household and travel tasks. This shape provides convenience for piercing and cutting movements, and is also convenient for work on products and wood.
The handle:The parameters and material are not specified, however, ergonomic materials are traditionally used on a blade of this class for a confident grip.
Hardness: 61-62 HRC — a guarantee of durability, excellent retention of sharpness, minimizing the frequency of sharpening.
Scope of application
- Hiking and camping:The knife is ideal for hiking tasks — cutting food, woodwork, kindling preparation, planing.
- Hunting and fishing:The high hardness and wear resistance of the X12MF steel make it possible to use the knife for cutting and processing game.
- Domestic and universal use:It will perfectly cope with daily tasks, both outdoors and at home.
- Collector's value:A model based on hand-hardened tool steel can become a worthy exhibit for connoisseurs.
Advantages and limitations
- Advantages:
- Excellent wear resistance and long-term retention of sharpening due to X12MF steel.
- High strength and rigidity of the blade.
- Universal blade shape (Normal Blade) for a wide range of jobs.
- An ideal balancing of parameters for tourism, forests, hunting and everyday life.
- Handmade — each knife is individual and has its own character.
- Limitations:
- Average corrosion resistance: the knife is not recommended for prolonged contact with moisture, regular maintenance and drying after wet work is necessary.
- It is not suitable for work involving heavy lateral loads (breaking, opening metal objects) due to the hardness of the steel. Due to the high hardness, a high-quality abrasive is required for sharpening.
Care recommendations
To maintain the perfect condition of the X12MF blade, it is recommended to immediately wipe the knife after contact with moisture, periodically treat the blade with a thin layer of neutral oil and use sharpening systems with suitable abrasiveness (at least diamond or ceramic stones). The handle requires standard maintenance depending on the material used (unknown).
A brief recommendation
This model is an ideal choice for professionals and enthusiasts who value a combination of sharpness, durability and reliability in the field. It is especially recommended for hunters, tourists, outdoor enthusiasts, as well as collectors.
