Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
Blade steel – H12MF: This knife is made of steel X12MF, one of the best Russian tool steels for cutting tools. X12MF is famous for its exceptional hardness (61-62 HRC), excellent wear resistance and aggressive cutting. The blade is 2.4 mm thick and 120 mm long, and perfectly sharpens even with prolonged and intensive use. The high hardness makes the knife suitable for cutting hard and fibrous materials, as well as for precision work in field or hiking tasks. However, this steel is sensitive to prolonged contact with moisture. After use, it is necessary to wipe the blade dry and lubricate it from time to time with an oil—forming agent to avoid corrosion.
Handle materials – stabilized Karelian birch and black hornbeam:The handle made of a combination of black hornbeam and stabilized Karelian birch not only emphasizes the product's status as a handmade item, but also provides excellent ergonomics. Karelian birch, which has been stabilized, has a high density, is resistant to deformation from moisture and temperature changes. The black hornbeam gives the handle a special elegance and adds stability. This combination ensures a secure grip even in wet hands or gloves. The handle is resistant to abrasion, retains a presentable appearance and is pleasant to the touch.
Blade Shape – Normal Blade:The classic shape of the blade (Normal Blade) is universal: it provides good control during pruning and precise operations, perfectly copes with work on wood, products, handicraft and household tasks.
