Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
Blade steel – 65x13:
The blade is made of 65x13 stainless steel, a popular domestic alloy known for its successful balance between strength and corrosion resistance. 65x13 contains a high chromium content, which provides excellent resistance to moisture, dampness, atmospheric influences and most household and field conditions. However, the hardness of the blade is only 25 HRC, which is atypically low for knives. This means that the blade has high ductility, but it practically does not retain its sharpness even under moderate loads and is not designed for complex cutting tasks.
Materials of the handle and scabbard:
The handle (material not specified) is made in the classic cutlass style and is designed for comfortable grip during ceremonial or ceremonial use. The shape and size of the handle (length 95 mm) allow you to comfortably hold the knife in your hand with or without gloves, especially in conditions where grip reliability is important when performing standard movements. The scabbard is made of plastic with brass elements, which emphasizes the status of the product and provides additional protection for the blade during storage and transportation.
The shape of the blade is a dirk:
The dirk is a straight, symmetrical blade with a thin point and sharpening on both sides, typical of military and ceremonial knives. This shape is ideal for injections and injections, however, this format is not intended for chopping movements, as well as for working with hard materials or product tasks. Historically, cutlasses served as a symbol of status and belonging to an agency or a certain rank, rather than a tool for daily work.
Wear resistance and maintenance:
Taking into account the low hardness of steel (25 HRC), the dirk has very limited wear resistance, quickly loses its sharpening and is not designed for operational loads. However, it can be easily adjusted even with a regular sharpener; blade care is limited to regular wiping from dust and moisture. Due to the resistance of 65x13 to corrosion, the product does not require special care, but it is recommended to avoid prolonged contact with aggressive media.
Applications, advantages and limitations
- Optimal application: A dirk of this type is an ornament of a collection, a ceremonial, presentation or award knife, an element of the uniform of employees of the Investigative Committee, a symbol of status or historical continuity.
- Holding in the hand:The classic geometry of the handle ensures a firm grip in a standard position designed for carrying or ceremonial actions.
- Corrosion resistance and easy maintenance:The 65x13 perfectly resists moisture, is not susceptible to rust, and does not require regular lubrication.
- Limitations: Due to its extremely low hardness and specific shape, it is absolutely unsuitable for practical use: cutting, chopping, butchering, camping, hunting, and kitchen tasks.
Unique advantages
- A high level of manual processing of parts — the dirk is made individually, which guarantees the uniqueness of the product.
- Aesthetic appeal: plastic scabbard with brass decoration creates a spectacular appearance, emphasizing the departmental affiliation and status of the owner.
- A symbol of historical heritage: cutlasses are a traditional element of armament for officers and employees of government agencies.
Recommendations and care
- Ideal for collectors, connoisseurs of weapons history, as a gift, reward or ceremonial accessory. Recommended to the staff of the Investigative Committee as part of the uniform set.
- It is not functional enough for field, household, or work tasks.
- Handle (material not specified) — avoid shock and strong mechanical influences, keep clean after outdoor use.
- To preserve the appearance, wipe the blade with a dry, soft cloth, do not store the product for a long time in a humid environment.
Final recommendation
The dirk of the General Investigative Committee is a status, collectible and ceremonial object created to demonstrate rank, affiliation and the value of traditions. It is not designed for practical use, but it is ideal as a symbol, gift or collection item for connoisseurs of historical and departmental weapons.
