The handmade hunting knife is made of high-grade tool steel X12MF. This steel is famous for its outstanding hardness (61-62 HRC), which provides the blade with exceptionally high wear resistance and long-term retention of edge sharpness even during intensive work. The blade is 2.4 mm thick and 150 mm long, allowing it to confidently perform a wide range of hunting and hiking tasks, including cutting, butchering and prey preparation. The blade width of 28 mm gives it stability under transverse loads.
The handle is made of natural birch bark, a light, pleasant—to-touch material with a natural grip that does not slip even in a wet palm or in the cold. Birch bark provides an excellent balance between the lightness of the knife and the strength of the grip. The leather scabbard reliably protects the blade and ensures comfortable wearing.
Steel X12MF is a classic among hunting knives due to its high hardness and resistance to wear, which makes the knife ideal for cutting carcasses, cutting hard materials, and planing wood. The knife perfectly keeps sharpening for a long time, even with frequent use in the field. The blade with the Normal Blade shape is versatile — the classic profile allows you to confidently perform both precise work and rough cutting, which is especially in demand in hunting and tourism.
The birch bark handle fits optimally even in a wet or frozen hand — the material does not gain moisture and does not become slippery. Thanks to the ergonomic shape of the handle, the knife is securely held in all conditions, allowing you to work for a long time without fatigue and the risk of accidental slipping.
X12MF is resistant to corrosion with proper care, but it does not belong to stainless steels in the full sense of the word. Regular cleaning and processing of the blade after work in a humid environment is desirable. The knife does not require frequent sharpening, but it can be easily adjusted on professional stones if necessary. It is enough to wipe the birch bark handle with a dry cloth, avoiding prolonged exposure to water, in order to preserve its appearance and structure.
This knife is ideal for hunting, fishing, hiking and outdoor activities, where a versatile tool with impeccable cutting and high reliability is required. Thanks to the combination of X12MF steel and a birch bark handle, the knife is of interest not only for practical use, but also for collectors who appreciate authentic materials and handmade traditions.
The limitation is that the knife is not designed for contact with mineral materials, bone splitting, heavy impact loads (batoning on thick logs), as well as for use in conditions of high humidity without proper care — in such cases, the risk of corrosion increases.
Final recommendation: The Cardinal 2 knife with an X12MF blade and a birch bark handle is an excellent choice for hunters, fishermen, tourists and anyone who appreciates reliability, durability and excellent cutting combined with the natural beauty and authenticity of materials. It requires minimal maintenance and regular treatment of the blade after contact with moisture. It is not recommended for heavy impact and construction and repair tasks.
