Detailed analysis of properties and features
Blade steel – Damascus with nickel plating:The blade is made of Damascus steel, known for its excellent hardness (HRC 62) and wear resistance. The damascus is formed by a complex multi-layered forged process, thanks to which the blade retains its sharpness for a long time and has excellent durability. Nickel plating gives additional corrosion resistance and a noble appearance, as well as facilitates maintenance.
Blade shape and construction:The blade is 170 mm long with a shaft and 3 mm thick, 35 mm wide. There is a pronounced guard, which prevents the hand from slipping onto the blade even during power work. Dol lightens the blade, reducing weight, but without sacrificing strength, and gives it a characteristic brutal look.
Handle material – elk horn and nickel silver with burnout:The handle is made of moose horn, a natural, extremely durable and moisture—resistant material that fits perfectly in the hand, adapts easily to temperature and does not slip even in humid conditions. Jewelry made of nickel silver and burn-out elements emphasize the handmade and antique style of the knife, making each piece unique.
Scabbard – leather: The set includes a leather scabbard, ensuring reliable and safe carrying.
Hardness and wear resistance:The HRC 62 value guarantees high wear resistance, long-term retention of sharpening and the necessary hardness for complex work.
Optimal tasks and conditions of use
- Hunting and tourism: It is ideal for cutting and preparing game, universal camping work (cutting branches, food, handicrafts), due to its strength, comfortable shape and non-slip handle.
- Collecting:The exclusive appearance, handmade, burn-out elements and nickel silver make the knife a great piece for the collection.
- Gift:Due to the combination of high consumer and aesthetic qualities, the product is suitable as a status gift for connoisseurs of weapons and knife culture.
The moose horn provides a secure hold even in wet, dirty or cold conditions — optimal for hiking, fishing, expeditions and active trips to nature. The guard increases safety during heavy work.
