Precise analysis of the properties and features of the knife
Blade steel — X12MF (hardness 61-62 HRC):
X12MF is a modern tool alloy steel known for its high hardness (61-62 HRC), excellent wear resistance and the ability to keep sharpening for a long time. Due to its high chromium content, this steel has basic corrosion resistance, but requires minimal maintenance to prevent rust in conditions of constant humidity. Due to its high hardness, the blade does not blunt for a long time, even during intensive use, and it can withstand significant loads on the cut. However, X12MF steel is quite hard and less ductile than many stainless alloys, so the blade is less suitable for scrap work, strong lateral stress or cutting of hard materials.
Handle — natural birch bark:
The birch bark handle fits perfectly in the palm of your hand, does not slip even in wet conditions and ensures the lightness of the knife itself. The natural structure of the material guarantees a warm tactile contact and minimizes fatigue during prolonged use. Birch bark absorbs vibrations well, reducing the impact on the hand when working. However, you should not leave such a knife in water for a long time — despite the treatment, natural birch bark is sensitive to excessive moisture and requires periodic maintenance (oil / wax impregnation to preserve aesthetics and performance).
Blade Shape — Normal Blade:
The classic shape of the Normal Blade is versatile, suitable for a wide range of jobs: precision cuts, cutting, food processing, skinning, and travel tasks. The blade's sufficient thickness (3.4 mm) and width (28 mm) ensure a balance between durability and ease of use. The blade length of 130 mm is the optimal solution for everyday tasks, as well as for outdoor activities, hunting and tourism. This form is not intended for cutting thick branches, heavy power work, or opening solid materials.
Scabbard — genuine leather:
The classic leather scabbard provides reliable protection for the blade during storage and transportation, promotes durability, and also emphasizes the traditional appearance of the knife.

Unique moments and advantages
- X12MF steel is the choice of professionals for its combination of hardness, sharpness and wear resistance, rarely used in mass production.
- The handle made of natural birch bark is an eco—friendly material with a unique texture, giving a feeling of comfort and a confident grip. The light weight and excellent balancing of the knife reduce fatigue during long-term work.

Care and maintenance
- Steel X12MF: it is recommended to wipe dry after work, especially after contact with moisture and food.
- For sharpening, use stones or diamond tools with angle control, suitable for self—sharpening due to the excellent steel structure.
- Birch bark handle: periodically soak with natural oil or wax, avoid prolonged wetting.
- Keep the knife in a dry, ventilated place, do not leave it in a leather sheath for a long time in humid conditions.
Recommendations and conclusion
This knife is an excellent choice for hunters, hikers, anglers and anyone who is looking for a versatile, lightweight, durable and beautiful tool for outdoor and household work. It is especially valuable for those who prefer high-quality handwork, appreciate the aesthetics of natural materials and need a tool that will not fail in difficult field conditions. For fans of heavy power work or extreme tactical tasks, this knife is less optimal.
The perfect combination of modern steel, organic grip and classic shape is for those who appreciate reliability, style and comfort in every movement.
