Careful analysis of characteristics and properties
Blade steel — K340: The K340 tool steel from Böhler is renowned for its high hardness (62 HRC) and excellent wear resistance. Due to its high chromium content, it has a noticeable corrosion resistance, which significantly increases the durability of the blade even when used in humid conditions. The K340 perfectly holds sharpening and withstands significant loads, which makes the knife a reliable companion in a wide variety of tasks.
The handle is black hornbeam and artificial stone: Black hornbeam is an elite wood known for its hardness, pleasant tactility and noble texture. In combination with artificial stone, the handle is not only aesthetically attractive, but also resistant to moisture and temperature changes. The shape of the handle with a guard ensures a secure grip even with gloves or wet palms, significantly reducing the risk of slipping when working.
Geometry of the blade — Drop Point: The classic universal Drop Point shape combines a wide “belly” and a smooth lowering of the buttline, which provides the perfect balance between puncture control and the ability to cut effectively. The 2.4mm thickness and 28 mm width make the blade strong enough for light tourism, hunting, urban tasks, as well as convenient for precision work in the kitchen.
Scabbard — genuine leather: The elegant genuine leather scabbard not only securely locks the knife, but also emphasizes the status of the handmade product, providing convenient transportation and protection.
Optimal applications and unique advantages
Tourism and active recreation: Great for preparing firewood, cutting food, and small carpentry jobs. The K340 ensures that the knife will not dull for a long time, and the handle is comfortable for prolonged use.
Hunting: The Drop Point shape and high hardness are ideal for skinning, butchering, and precision work.
Daily use: The maneuverability and versatility of the blade (115 mm) allow you to use the knife at home, outdoors, in a car.
Aesthetics and collectible value: The combination of black hornbeam and artificial stone, leather scabbard, handmade — all this makes the knife not only a tool, but also a source of pride for connoisseurs of exclusive items.
