Precise analysis of the characteristics and features of the knife
Blade steel: HW5 (HRC 65)
The blade is based on high-carbon tool steel HV5, hardened to an impressive 65 units on the Rockwell scale. This steel is known for its outstanding wear resistance and long-term retention of the cutting edge. The blades made of HV5 are not inferior in cutting to the best samples of professional tools, and such high hardness provides excellent resistance to bluntness even when working with hard materials. However, despite the sharpness of the working edge, high hardness implies careful handling of excessive lateral loads and careful use: steel is less ductile than softer grades.
HV5 has moderate corrosion resistance, but still requires regular maintenance to prevent rust. It is recommended to thoroughly wipe and lubricate the blade after use, especially in wet conditions. This steel demonstrates the best qualities when used as a tool for precision work and cutting.
Handle material: Stabilized Karelian birch (amber+green)
The handle is made of stabilized Karelian birch, an exquisite material that combines natural beauty with modern processing. Stabilization increases the moisture resistance of wood, preventing swelling, shrinkage and cracking when temperature and humidity change. The unique amber-green shade distinguishes the knife from others, giving the handle a unique character. The handle is designed for a confident and comfortable grip — it does not slip even with wet hands, which makes the knife safe in all weather conditions and increases the accuracy of tool control.
Blade Shape: Normal Blade
The classic universal blade shape is optimal for rectilinear cuts, spot work, planing and other tasks where precision and predictability of movement are important. Blade length — 145 mm, thickness — 2.4 mm, width — 25 mm: optimal balance between maneuverability and working resource. This geometry is great for woodwork, hiking tasks, as well as confident household use.
Scabbard: Leather
The knife is equipped with a classic leather sheath, which reliably protects the product and preserves its aesthetic appearance. The leather is moisture-resistant and durable, which emphasizes the quality of hand-made products.
Optimal application area
Thanks to the chosen steel and construction, the knife is ideal for:
- Hiking, hiking and bushcraft — retains the cutting edge for a long time, withstands the processing of wood, food, fabric and light cables;
- Hunting and fishing — provides a clean, confident cut, easily handles the work of cutting and preparing the trophy;
- For household and household use — the universal shape of the blade and the convenient handle form a tool for a wide range of tasks;
- The unique handle made of stabilized Karelian birch and hand—made assembly make the knife valuable for collectors.
Advantages and limitations
Advantages:
- Outstanding cutting edge durability — requires less sharpening;
- An exceptional combination of aesthetics of natural wood and modern handle processing — durability, individuality;
- Safe and reliable grip in all conditions (wet hands, cold);
- Easy maintenance due to the open handle structure and high hardness of steel;
- Handmade — each knife is absolutely unique.
- It is not recommended to use for power work with large transverse loads — chipping of the cutting edge is possible due to the high hardness of the HV5 steel;
- Moderate corrosion resistance: requires regular maintenance, especially after contact with moisture and aggressive environments. It is not intended for heavy batting, chopping bones or metal.
Care recommendations
Recommended for a blade made of HV5:
— After each use, rinse and wipe thoroughly dry.
— Apply protective oil to the blade regularly to avoid corrosion.
— Sharpening is performed with medium and high-grain abrasives: if necessary, the process does not take much time to return to its former sharpness.
For a handle made of stabilized Karelian birch, it is enough to wipe it periodically with a soft cloth. Thanks to the stabilization, the handle is not afraid of moisture and temperature fluctuations.
It is recommended to store the knife in a dry place, protected from direct exposure to moisture.
Conclusion and brief recommendation
The knife is perfect for experienced hikers, hunters, anglers and true connoisseurs of handmade, who value a combination of durability, aesthetics and functionality. It is especially relevant for those who are looking for a versatile, easy-to-maintain and reliable tool for hiking, active lifestyle or collection. It is not recommended for heavy work with extreme transverse loads and continuous operation in a humid, aggressive environment without regular maintenance.
