This knife is made of high-quality Damascus steel with a blade hardness of 62 HRC, which provides it with exceptional wear resistance, sharpness and durability for many years of use. Damask is a unique material known for its magnificent combination of hardness and elasticity, as well as an expressive, unique pattern on the surface. This steel holds the sharpening perfectly and requires minimal effort to restore the cutting edge with proper care. The special feature is high strength coupled with moderate flexibility, which makes the knife reliable even under regular intense loads.
The handle is made of birch bark, a material that is lightweight, environmentally friendly and has excellent tactile properties. Birch bark does not slip even in a wet hand, and due to its porous structure it remains warm to the touch in cold weather and does not fade in the sun. This material also provides natural cushioning and reduces palm fatigue when working with a knife for a long time.
A blade with a Trailing Point shape is a smoothly rising line of the butt, forming an expressive "rise" of the tip. This shape is ideal for making long, smooth cuts, thinning, skinning trophies, and precise cuts that require controlled, precise movement. The blade thickness of 2.4 mm ensures sufficient durability when working with products and does not interfere with making a thin and clean cut.
The guard increases safety by preventing the hand from slipping onto the blade, and the genuine leather scabbard emphasizes the status of the handmade product and ensures reliable storage and transportation of the knife.
Optimal tasks:
Damascus: The corrosion resistance of Damascus steel is average, so it is recommended to wipe the blade dry after contact with moisture and periodically treat it with protective oil.
The knife is an ideal choice for hunters, fishermen, lovers of tourism and connoisseurs of handmade, who value not only performance, but also aesthetics. It is especially recommended for work where filigree precision, light and controlled cutting is required. It is not suitable for heavy-duty economic and construction tasks and heavy logging.Technical analysis and features of the knife

Advantages and features of materials
Moisture resistance and maintenance
Birch bark handle: It requires avoiding prolonged exposure to moisture — dry at room temperature, do not leave in an aggressive humid environment, periodically update the protective impregnation with oil or wax.
Sharpening and maintenance: The blade easily regains its sharpness when using a high-quality musat or grindstone. The use of aggressive electric sharpeners is not recommended — manual sharpening is preferable for Damascus.
Conclusion and recommendations
Regular and competent care of the Damascus steel and the birch bark handle will preserve the functionality and appearance of the knife for many years to come.
