This knife is the epitome of exquisite handwork and unique materials. The blade is made of laminated Damascus steel with a S390 powder core, which provides outstanding cutting properties and durability. Damascus not only gives the blade an expressive texture and aesthetic depth, but also increases its resistance to fracture.Analysis of characteristics and materials
The S390 alloy is known for its high hardness (HRC 60) and excellent wear resistance, which is especially valuable for knives designed for heavy and diverse work. Lamination contributes to additional resistance to chipping, and also facilitates sharpening compared to monolithic powder steel.
The handle is made of carved bone using the Scrimshaw art technique (engraving), and is also decorated with elements of mokume gane— a multilayer metal with a unique pattern. An additional element, the elk horn, provides a secure grip even with a wet hand, and the pronounced texture makes it easier to control the knife.
The shape of the blade, the classic Normal Blade— is versatile and balanced: it allows you to perform both precise cuts and strength work, which makes the knife suitable in a wide variety of scenarios.
Handmade leather scabbard made of vegetable-tanned leather reliably protects the knife and preserves its collector's value.
Optimal applications and operating conditions
Advantages and limitations
- Advantages:
- High hardness and wear resistance of the S390 core.
- Laminated damask provides a combination of durability and aesthetics, reducing the risk of chipped edges.
- The handle made of moose horn and mokume gane guarantees a secure grip in all conditions, including high humidity.
- A unique look thanks to rare processing techniques: scrimshaw, mokume-ghana.
- The classic shape of the blade is versatile and convenient for most household and professional tasks.
- High-quality leather sheath for safe storage.
- Limitations:
- It is not recommended for intensive work on very hard materials (metal, concrete), as the Damascus and S390 core are designed for cutting, not impact loads.
- The product requires careful care — prolonged contact with aggressive media or acids is not recommended. An artistic handle may be less resistant to extreme mechanical damage than fully synthetic materials.
Care recommendations
- After use, wipe the blade dry, especially after contact with moisture or acidic environment.
- Avoid heavy bumps and falls to preserve the engraving and handle structure.
- Periodically lubricate the blade with a light oil to protect against corrosion, despite the basic Damask resistance to moisture.
- The knife is sharpened with medium abrasives, and when blunted, it is recommended to contact a specialist in sharpening complex steels.
- It is advisable to treat leather scabbards periodically with a skin balm to preserve their elasticity and protection from water.
