Comprehensive analysis of characteristics and features
This knife is made of D2 tool steel, which has excellent performance properties for universal and working knives. D2 steel is known for its high hardness (HRC 64), which provides outstanding wear resistance and long-term cutting edge retention. Thanks to this, the knife remains sharp for a long time even with intensive use and is excellent for cutting complex and hard materials.
The 3 mm thick blade with a length of 115 mm guarantees a balance between strength and maneuverability. This ratio allows the knife to be used both for precise tasks (for example, cutting and thinning small products, skinning) and for more rough work (cutting fish, cutting rope, woodworking)
.
The handle made of natural Karelian birch not only makes the knife aesthetically attractive and unique (the characteristic pattern of each handle is unique), but also provides a reliable grip due to the natural texture of the wood. The handle length of 100 mm is designed to hold the knife securely in various conditions, whether in a humid environment or working with gloves. However, like all wood products, the handle requires careful treatment and regular maintenance.
The all—metal construction guarantees durability and additional strength - the knife is not afraid of heavy loads, and the handle does not loosen over time. The leather sheath protects the knife in field conditions and during transportation.
Optimal application area: advantages and features
Hunting and fishing: due to its high hardness and wear resistance, the knife does a good job of cutting prey, skinning, and preparing bait. It easily cuts dense materials and muscles without requiring frequent sharpening.
Hiking and bushcraft: The versatile blade size and durability are suitable for most outdoor tasks — cutting branches, preparing food, creating pegs, small-scale carpentry and handicraft work.
Collectibles and gifts: the unique Karelian birch handle and handmade make each piece individual, which is especially valuable for connoisseurs of original products.
Domestic use: copes with most kitchen tasks, not inferior to many specialized knives in sharpness and convenience.
Limitations and possible disadvantages
D2 steel is not completely stainless:Corrosion resistance is higher than that of carbon steels, but in constant contact with moisture, blood and acid, it requires mandatory wiping and drying. Keep the knife dry.
Hardness HRC 64: makes the blade less resistant to impacts in the transverse direction. It is not recommended to use it for rough power work, opening bones, planing thick branches and "batoning".
Wooden handle: sensitive to extreme humidity, possible cracking and darkening in the absence of care. It is not suitable for prolonged exposure to water or contact with aggressive liquids.
Specific care recommendations
Steel D2: after work, thoroughly wash and dry the blade, avoid prolonged exposure to wet scabbards. To prevent rust, it is recommended to apply a thin layer of oil periodically.
The handle is made of Karelian birch:Periodically treat with mineral oil or a specialized wood cleaner. Avoid prolonged contact with water and sudden temperature changes.
Sharpening: Due to its high hardness, it requires the use of diamond or ceramic abrasives to maintain razor sharpness.
Final recommendations and for whom the knife is especially important
This model is ideal for active hunters, fishermen, tourists, collectors and anyone who appreciates the reliability, aesthetics of natural materials and durability of the product. This is the choice for those who are looking for not just a tool, but an object with character and history, ready for serious work and with proper care that has been serving for decades. For tasks involving extreme power loads or prolonged exposure to a humid environment, alternatives should be considered. But for everyday tasks in nature, hunting, fishing and in everyday life, this knife will become an indispensable and unique companion, emphasizing the owner's taste for high-quality handmade products.
