Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
The steel of the blade is Damascus, hardness 62 HRC. The base of the knife is Damascus steel with an outstanding hardness of 62 HRC. Damascus is famous not only for its unique pattern, which makes each blade unique, but also for its high consumer properties. Due to its multi—layered structure, such a blade combines strength with good elasticity, and a hardness of 62 HRC ensures long-term retention of the cutting edge - the knife retains its razor sharpness for a long time, easily copes with wood, meat, and leather cutting.
Blade shape and parameters. The blade is 130 mm long and 2.4 mm thick with a width of 30 mm. It is universal for most household and hiking tasks, but it is especially useful in cutting and working on products, small household chores where precision and accurate cutting are needed. The guard design reliably protects the hand and increases safety at work.
The material and design of the handle are elk horn, carved bone, scrimshaw.The handle combines aesthetics and functionality: the natural texture of the elk horn and the artistic carving with the scrimshaw element ensure not only a spectacular appearance, but also a confident, tenacious grip even in a wet hand or glove. Thanks to such materials, the handle is durable, resistant to temperature fluctuations and pleasant to the touch during prolonged use.
Corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Damascus steel traditionally requires careful handling and regular maintenance: after work, it is recommended to wipe the blade dry and store it in dry conditions. Despite the layered structure, Damascus blades, thanks to modern technologies, have decent resistance to moisture, but prolonged contact with water or aggressive media is not recommended. Wear resistance at height — the knife does not blunt for a long time, does not deform even during intensive use.
Care and maintenance. To maintain the cutting properties and preserve the patterned structure, periodic sharpening on a thin stone or paste is recommended, after which the surface is treated with oil. Horn and bone do not require specific care, but to preserve their decorative properties, it is worth avoiding prolonged exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures. The vegetable-tanned leather scabbard provides long-term protection and emphasizes the handmade status.
