Detailed analysis of the characteristics and features of the knife
Blade steel — Damascus steel (HRC 62):
The use of multilayer Damascus steel provides the knife with incredible hardness (62 HRC), outstanding wear resistance and the ability to maintain the sharpness of the cutting edge for a long time. This steel is famous not only for its high strength, but also for its unique aesthetics due to its characteristic pattern — each knife is individual. However, like all Damascus steels, it requires careful treatment of moisture: corrosion may occur during prolonged contact with water or storage in humid conditions without thorough drying and lubrication.
Birch bark handle:
Natural birch bark is a historically proven, warm—to-the-touch material, characterized by low weight, high ergonomics and excellent knife retention even in wet conditions or with wet hands. Due to its porous structure, birch bark prevents slipping and quickly takes the temperature of the hand, which makes working with a knife especially comfortable. However, birch bark requires careful handling — prolonged soaking or storage in damp places is not recommended. Regular treatment with oil or specialized formulations will help preserve the structure and appearance of the material for years.
Blade Shape — Normal Blade:
The classic blade shape is well balanced for versatile cutting, piercing, and small-scale work. The width of 30 mm and length of 115 mm create the optimal ratio for precise and diverse tasks: cutting products, woodwork, cutting small game. The 2.4mm thick butt provides a balance between durability and excellent cutting properties, reducing the weight of the knife and increasing ease of control.
Genuine leather scabbard:
The classic leather design guarantees safe storage and transportation of the knife, protecting the blade from damage and moisture (subject to periodic skin care).
Guard:
The metal guard provides additional safety — it protects the hand from slipping onto the blade during power work.
Scope of application and optimal tasks
The best choice for hiking, hiking, hunting, fishing, country and camping trips, picnics.
It is suitable for cutting small and medium game, slicing food, processing wood, and household tasks in nature.
Thanks to the handmade and expressive Damascus steel, the knife will also become a worthy element of the collection and a wonderful gift for a lover of traditions.

Care recommendations
After each use, wipe and dry the blade thoroughly, and if stored for a long time, treat it with oil to protect it from corrosion.
