The actual analysis of the properties and features of the knife
Steel of the blade is damask (hardness HRC 65): Damask steel is a legendary material, famous for its unique combination of high cutting properties and aesthetic pattern. The hardness of 65 HRC indicates phenomenal wear resistance: such a blade keeps sharpening for a long time, easily handles hard and fibrous materials, but requires careful handling under heavy lateral loads. Damask has moderate corrosion resistance, so it is recommended to keep the blade clean and wipe it after working in humid conditions.
Blade Shape — Normal Blade: The classic shape of a universal purpose blade. It is great for most household, hiking, and camping tasks: slicing, butchering, simple cooking, and small-scale carpentry. With a width of 28 mm and a thickness of 3.5 mm, a good balance between penetration and durability is ensured.
Handle — Karelian birch (color: purple): Karelian birch is one of the most valuable and beautiful materials for the handle, known for its density, durability and unusual pattern. The handle provides a secure grip in the palm of your hand even in damp conditions, and also visually highlights the knife due to its unique wood pattern. The material is non-slip in the hand, pleasant to the touch, eco-friendly and only acquires a noble patina over time.
Dimensions and overall ergonomics: The blade length of 131 mm and the handle of 125 mm create a balanced product for control and confident operation. The 3.5 mm blade thickness makes the knife strong enough for most tasks without turning it into a "hatchet".
Sheath — leather: The classic leather scabbard protects the blade, is comfortable for daily wear, and emphasizes the status of the handmade product.

Care recommendations
After use, it is recommended to wipe the blade dry and periodically lubricate it with oil to protect it from corrosion. Keep the knife in a ventilated place, avoid prolonged contact with moisture.

For sharpening, use water or diamond stones with fine and medium grain, avoid rough grinding surfaces.
