Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
S390 Blade steel: This knife is made of premium S390 high-speed powder steel, which is considered to be one of the best knife steels due to its outstanding performance properties. The blade has a high hardness of 70 HRC, which ensures exceptional cutting edge durability and long service life without the need for frequent sharpening. The S390 steel perfectly resists wear, which makes this knife very reliable during intensive use. Due to the high chromium content and additional alloying elements, the S390 demonstrates good corrosion resistance, although timely care is recommended for prolonged exposure to moisture, such as washing, drying and lubricating with blade oils.
Blade shape and dimensions: Drop Point is a universal blade shape that is optimal for most household and tourist tasks. The blade is 123 mm long and 2.4 mm thick, providing an excellent balance between maneuverability and durability. This geometry is suitable for precision work, cutting and slicing both small and medium-sized materials. The 28 mm width increases the contact area, making the knife particularly convenient for cutting and filigree work.
The handle is made of stabilized Karelian birch with nickel silver:The use of stabilized amber Karelian birch gives not only stunning aesthetics, each knife has a unique natural pattern, but also high resistance to moisture, dirt and cracking. Nickel-silver elements enhance the design, adding durability and noble shine to the handles. The handle length of 125 mm and ergonomic handling ensure an excellent grip in all conditions — from wet hands to gloves, the handle is non-slip and comfortable even during prolonged operation.
The scabbard:The classic leather sheath securely locks the knife, ensuring safety when carrying and quick removal.
