Exact specifications and design features
Blade Steel:65X13 is a domestic stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance, widely used in the knife industry for blades requiring resistance to moisture and ease of maintenance.
The hardness of the blade:25 HRC is a low value, which means that the blade has plasticity and good resistance to breakage, but it will quickly lose its sharpness and is not designed for chopping and heavy work.
Blade shape: The dirk is an elongated, symmetrical shape, traditionally designed for thrusting movements, has good penetrating power, but is not suitable for heavy household tasks related to cutting, planing or chopping.
Blade length:205 mm — provides excellent handling and a balance between length and maneuverability.
Blade thickness:3.5 mm is enough for reliability, but with the shape of the dirk it does not add much strength to the fracture.
Sheath Materials: Plastic and brass are a classic combination for ceremonial and collectible cutlasses, ensuring long—lasting storage and an attractive appearance.
Performance characteristics and recommendations for use
Optimal application area:Collection use, ceremonial functions, ceremonial events, elements of form and symbols. Due to the classic shape of the dirk and the materials used, it is an excellent choice for connoisseurs of military history and traditional officer surroundings.
Holding in the hand:Due to its elongated shape and perfectly balanced geometry, the dirk fits securely in the hand during ceremonial and ceremonial wear, is not prone to slipping, however, it is poorly designed for long or heavy work on wood or products.
Resistance to moisture: 65X13 steel is famous for its excellent corrosion resistance, does not require constant lubrication and processing, plastic and brass scabbards protect the blade from environmental influences.
Wear resistance and durability:Due to its low hardness (25 HRC), the blade is extremely resistant to breakage, but quickly blunts, so it is not recommended for intensive use — regular sharpening will be required for household and survival tasks.
Ease of maintenance:The 65X13 is very easy to sharpen, even with the help of the simplest sharpening devices, it does not require special skills, however, due to its softness, sharpening must be carried out frequently at the slightest signs of loss of sharpness.

Conclusion and recommendations
The officer's dirk based on 65X13 steel is the choice for collectors, lovers of military history and those who appreciate ritual and symbolic knives with historical heritage.

It provides status, durability and ease of care, requiring only periodic sharpening and standard appearance care. We recommend it for ceremonial, collectible and souvenir use, as well as for replenishment of thematic collections.
