Blade steel D2 (hardness 64 HRC)
Handle material — brass set
Blade: Normal Blade shape, parameters
Scabbard: genuine leatherDetailed analysis of characteristics and features
The legendary D2 tool steel is one of the examples of modern high—carbon steels, famous for its excellent combination of wear resistance and strength. The hardness of 64 HRC ensures exceptional retention of the cutting edge: this knife retains its sharpness for a long time even during active use. D2 is resistant to abrasion, withstands significant cutting and impaling loads, and is not prone to chipping. However, D2 steel is partially corrosion-resistant (semi-stainless): it resists moisture well with periodic care, but with prolonged contact with moisture or aggressive environments, stains or plaque may appear, which requires care during use and storage.
The brass handle from the set of elements gives the knife a statuesque look and provides excellent balancing. Brass is resistant to aging, eventually covered with a noble patina, emphasizing the individuality of the handmade. The material fits well in the hand, especially in dry conditions, demonstrating a slight warming effect from the palm. The set design reduces sliding and increases the comfort of holding even during prolonged operation, however, in case of high humidity, brass can become slippery, requiring increased attention to the grip.
The universal geometry of the Normal Blade (straight line of the butt, pronounced sharp tip) makes the knife suitable for a wide range of tasks: precise piercing, clean longitudinal and transverse cutting, careful work on products and materials of different densities. The 2.4mm blade thickness guarantees a balance between penetration and flexural strength. The width of 30 mm contributes to confident work on cutting and planing.
The blade length of 120 mm is the ideal size for universal use: it is long enough for household, tourist and hunting tasks, but it does not interfere with control during precise movements.
Reliable leather scabbard is a classic that guarantees a long service life and a presentable appearance. The leather protects the blade from accidental damage and moisture, without attracting corrosion, and the design complements the image of an exclusive accessory.
Optimal application and operational features
Strengths and limitations
Advantages:- High wear resistance and long cutting edge retention (D2. 64 HRC)
- The balance of strength and versatility of geometry (Normal Blade)
- Unique aesthetics and practicality of the brass handle
- Excellent balancing and comfortable grip in dry conditions
- Handmade, the individuality of each specimen
- Leather scabbard for secure storage and easy transportation
- Requires regular maintenance to protect against corrosion — prolonged contact with moisture is not recommended (D2, brass)
- A wet brass handle can become slippery — careful grip control is required in the rain or when working with wet hands
- Not designed for high-load chopping tasks (blade thickness 2.4 mm)
- It is not suitable for environments with abrasive dirt without subsequent cleaning and lubrication
Care recommendations
- After use, wipe and dry the blade, do not store the knife in a damp sheath for a long time.
- Periodic application of oil to the blade (mineral or special for knives) is recommended, especially after contact with moisture or food.
- The brass handle can be wiped with a soft cloth to preserve its shine or, conversely, allow a patina to form for a unique appearance. Sharpening is not difficult — the D2 reacts well to modern diamond and ceramic stones, but requires care due to its high hardness.
- Avoid storage in highly humid or chemically aggressive environments.
Conclusion and recommendations
This knife is an ideal choice for tourists, hunters, collectors and anyone who is looking for a versatile handmade tool with a vibrant personality and high performance.
