Detailed analysis of the characteristics and features of the knife
Blade steel: H12MF, hardness 61-62 HRC
The blade is made of X12MF tool steel, a true classic for handmade knives, famous for its combination of high hardness (61-62 HRC) and excellent wear resistance. Due to its high carbon and chromium content, this steel is resistant to abrasive wear: the knife keeps sharpening for a long time even with intensive use. It is an ideal choice for those who value reliability and durability.
However, despite its resistance to wear, it must be borne in mind that X12MF steel is not stainless. With frequent contact with moisture, patina or corrosion may appear, so it is recommended to thoroughly wipe and lubricate the blade after use, especially in humid conditions.
Handle: all-metal construction, black hornbeam
The handle is made of black hornbeam, one of the most valuable and dense wood species. The natural hornbeam texture is not only aesthetic, but also practical: even in a wet hand, the knife is securely held without the risk of slipping. Thanks to the all-metal construction, the knife acquires additional strength and balance, and the compact handle (100 mm) is suitable for both men and women, allowing you to confidently control the knife when performing precise work.
Dimensions, balance and ergonomics
The length of the blade — 115 mm with a thickness of 3 mm and a width of 23 mm — is optimal for universal household tasks, tourism, hunting and fishing. The classic silhouette and well-thought-out balancing ensure convenience during slicing, cutting and small operations.
Blade shape
The classic universal blade shape (not specified, but most often drop-point or wedge shapes with a soft recurve for this type of knife) contributes to a neat and controlled cut. This blade is great for handling food, skinning, butchering fish, and small carpentry jobs. The shape of the sharpening allows you to quickly restore the cutting edge, even in field conditions.
Scabbard
The leather scabbard provides reliable and stylish storage, protecting the blade in any situation.
Scope and limitations
Optimal application:
- Tourism, fishing, hunting: cutting, slicing, cooking.
- Household tasks.
- A collector's purchase due to the nobility of materials and handwork.
- Woodwork, small-scale carpentry activities.
- Prolonged operation in a humid environment, in contact with salt water, requires special care — steel is prone to rust formation.
- The knife is not recommended for heavy impact loads (batoning large logs, opening bones, etc.), so as not to risk damage to the cutting edge due to its high hardness. It is not intended for opening canned food, working with metal and other tasks that require specialized tools.
Advantages and unique features
- The steel base of the X12MF is legendary for reliability and durability for reliable operation.
- Hand-made: each knife is unique, which highlights the status of the owner. Black hornbeam is a luxurious and practical solution (durability, moisture resistance, pleasant tactility).
- All—metal construction ensures reliability and balanced weight.
- Easy to sharpen and easy to maintain: even in the field, the cutting edge is easy to repair.
- Stylish leather gear included for safe carrying and storage.
Care recommendations
- Wipe the blade dry after use, especially after contact with moisture or aggressive substances.
- Periodically lubricate the metal parts with a thin layer of neutral oil to protect against corrosion.
- It is advisable to treat a wooden handle with wax or a special oil for exotic breeds — this will prolong its service life and preserve aesthetics.
- Keep the knife in a dry place, in a leather sheath.
Final recommendation
This knife is an excellent choice for connoisseurs of handmade, outdoor activities, tourism and hunting, as well as for collectors. The model will be especially appreciated by those who are looking for a balance between aesthetics, durability, excellent cutting edge and practicality. To work in extremely humid conditions or extreme shock loads, it is better to choose specialized tools. Proper care of X12MF steel and hornbeam wood will ensure the product's long service life and preserve its luxurious appearance for years to come.
