Features and Benefits
Blade steel: D2 (hardness 64 HRC)
The use of D2 tool steel with a hardness of 64 HRC is a sign of a professional approach in the manufacture of cutting tools. D2 is known for its excellent wear resistance and the ability to keep sharpening for a long time. In the working process, such a knife easily copes even with hard materials, is resistant to chipping and mechanical damage.
Resistance to moisture and corrosion
D2 is a semi—rusting grade steel: it is less susceptible to corrosion than conventional carbon steels, but still requires careful attention during prolonged contact with moisture. To prevent stains and rust, it is recommended to wipe the knife thoroughly after use and store it in a dry place.
Blade Shape: Normal Blade
The classic shape of the Normal Blade is versatile: it provides convenience both when cutting and when pricking, making this knife suitable for most household, hiking and hunting tasks. The blade thickness of 2.4 mm and length of 120 mm is a balanced combination for precise and controlled operation.
Handle material: Natural birch bark
The birch bark handle is not only aesthetic and spectacular in appearance, but also has unique practical properties. Birch bark is incredibly pleasant to the touch, does not slip even in wet hands and perfectly dampens vibrations during work. The material is warm, lightweight, resistant to temperature changes and provides a reliable grip without fatigue even during prolonged use.
Scabbard: Genuine leather
High-quality leather scabbards guarantee safe storage and transportation, as well as emphasize the handiwork and status of the product.
Scope and limitations
- It is ideal for tourism, hunting, fishing: it easily carves, cuts food, helps with camp preparation, and processes wood.
- It performs well in urban and suburban life: cutting food, cutting packaging, fine work on wood and other materials.
- Collectors may be interested: the natural texture of the birch bark and the handwork make each piece unique.
- It is not recommended to use it for heavy scrap work (batoning large logs, picking, etc.), as well as in constant contact with an aggressive humid environment, which can lead to corrosion of the blade and damage to the natural handle.
Care and maintenance
D2 steel requires minimal maintenance, but like any semi-rusting steel, it is recommended to wipe the blade thoroughly dry after use and keep the knife dry. Occasionally lubricate the blade with oil for additional protection from moisture. The birch bark handle is not afraid of moisture, but it should not be left wet for a long time — after getting wet, let the handle dry well in natural conditions. Leather scabbards should preferably be treated with a special impregnation to maintain elasticity and appearance.
Unique features and comparison
The main feature of the knife is the combination of premium tool steel and a handle made of carefully selected birch bark. The high hardness of the blade (64 HRC) ensures long-term sharpness, and the natural texture of the birch bark is not only functional, but also gives each knife an individual character. Such an ensemble is a rarity among mass—produced products and emphasizes the exclusivity of handmade work.
Brief recommendations
The knife is best suited for those who appreciate reliability, durability, special grip comfort and natural materials. It will become a reliable tool for hunters, tourists, fishermen, as well as useful in everyday life and decorate the collection of handmade connoisseurs. It is not recommended for heavy work and extremely humid environments. Knife care is simple when the basic operating rules of semi-rusting steel and natural birch bark are followed.
