Detailed analysis of properties and features
Blade steel — Damascus: The blade is made of high-grade Damascus steel with a hardness of 62 HRC, which ensures excellent wear resistance and durability of the cutting edge. Due to its layered structure, Damascus not only impresses with its unique pattern, but also demonstrates the optimal combination of hardness and elasticity: the knife retains its sharpness for a long time and is resistant to discoloration of the blade. However, it is worth remembering that Damascus steel requires regular maintenance and protection from moisture, as corrosion can occur with prolonged exposure to wet environments.
Handle material — birch bark: The birch bark handle is the choice of true connoisseurs of nature and connoisseurs of traditional technologies. This material is not only beautiful in appearance, but also surprisingly practical: light, warm to the touch, it fits perfectly in the hand, does not slip even in wet conditions, and is also able to absorb shocks. Birch bark does not absorb moisture due to its natural structure and processing, which prevents swelling and cracking of the handle.
Blade shape and construction: The versatile Drop Point shape with a blade length of 105 mm and a thickness of 3 mm is the choice of hunters and tourists who appreciate the balance between cutting and piercing properties. This geometry is optimal for precise work on cutting game, cleaning fish, and cooking in nature. The guard reliably protects the hand from slipping, increasing safety during power work.
The scabbard: Made of genuine leather, the durable and aesthetic leather case provides additional protection for the knife in field conditions and ease of transportation.
