Detailed analysis of properties and characteristics
Blade steel: 65X13
For the Capercaillie knife, stainless steel 65X13 was chosen — one of the most popular steels for practical, working and throwing knives made in Russia. Due to the chromium content, this steel has a pronounced corrosion resistance, which makes the knife resistant to moisture, precipitation and temperature changes, especially when used outdoors. The hardness of the blade (usually for 65X13 is 55-57 HRC) It provides a decent balance between wear resistance and strength — the blade retains its sharpness well, but it is not too fragile, which is important for throwing knives subject to impact loads.
Blade thickness: 5 mm
The increased blade thickness (5 mm) guarantees durability even with strong throws and hits on hard surfaces. This blade is extremely resistant to deformation and chipping, ensuring a long service life of the knife without damage.
Handle material: Not specified
There is no information about the handle material. Throwing knives usually have an all-metal construction for perfect balance and durability, which minimizes the risk of the handle collapsing when thrown.
Blade shape: Not specified
However, as a rule, throwing knives of the Capercaillie series have a symmetrical shape with a smooth descent to the tip, which facilitates throwing and improves penetration. This geometry is optimal for stable flight and deep entry into the target.
Scope of application and key advantages
Optimal tasks:
The Capercaillie knife is a specialized product designed primarily for sports and recreational throwing. It is ideal for both beginners and experienced athletes due to the high forgivability of throwing errors, the uniform weight and strength of the blade.
— Throwing for range and accuracy, training and competitions;
— Active recreation and knife skills training.
Hand hold:
Throwing knives most often have a simple, streamlined handle without pronounced notches and indentations, so as not to interfere with throwing with various grips. Due to its well-balanced weight, the knife fits confidently in the palm of your hand and does not slip with proper throwing technique.
Resistance to moisture and corrosion:
65X13 steel is not afraid of water and dampness — the knife is resistant to corrosion even when used outdoors or in wet weather. This allows you not to worry about the additional protection of the blade.
Wear resistance and durability:
Due to the combination of steel and blade thickness, the knife can withstand repeated throws, does not lose its integrity and shape even during intensive use.
Ease of maintenance and maintenance:
The 65X13 can be easily sharpened even with simple sharpening systems, which is especially important for a throwing knife with a high load on the cutting edge and tip. Minimal maintenance: it is enough to wipe the blade dry after use and update the sharpening as needed.
