Design and materials analysis: excellence in every detail
Blade steel: S390 (hardness HRC 70)
S390 is one of the best modern powder steels with outstanding hardness (HRC 70), wear resistance and cutting properties. Due to the high content of tungsten and vanadium, the blade has impressive resistance to wear and long-term retention of sharpness, surpassing most analogues. This steel does an excellent job with hard, long-term cutting, allowing the blade to stay sharp for a long time even with active use. However, it requires care: the high-hardness S390 is less ductile and more sensitive to lateral loads than softer steels.
Handle: black hornbeam
Natural black hornbeam wood is a material that combines aesthetics and practicality. Its unique texture and deep color create a noble look. Hornbeam wood is known for its density, moisture resistance and pleasant tactile sensations, and a special treatment additionally protects the handle from water and dampness. Thanks to its ergonomic shape, the handle fits perfectly in your hand, allowing you to confidently control the knife in any environment — from the kitchen to the forest or hunting.
Geometry and dimensions of the blade
The 110 mm long blade with a width of 40 mm and a 3.5 mm thick butt is a universal combination for most household, tourist and hunting tasks. This geometry ensures a balanced cut, high penetration and fracture strength. The Drop Point shape with a smooth drop of the butt to the tip has historically been appreciated for its manageability and versatility, allowing you to carefully work with products, as well as perform woodwork or skin prey.
Moisture resistance and corrosion resistance
S390 steel resists corrosion well, but requires regular maintenance to maintain its properties. After use, we recommend wiping the blade dry and lubricating it with light oil. Due to its density and processing, black hornbeam is not afraid of moderate moisture, however, prolonged exposure of the knife to water is not recommended.
Wear resistance and easy maintenance
The S390 is a champion in wear resistance and durability of the cut: it is suitable for those who appreciate constant working sharpness without frequent sharpening. However, due to its high hardness, it requires the use of high-quality diamond or ceramic tools for straightening and sharpening. The handle made of black hornbeam is easy to care for — it is enough to periodically wipe it with natural oils to preserve its rich color and protect the structure.
Optimal scope of application
This knife is an ideal companion for an experienced hunter, tourist, bushcraft fan or a connoisseur of real working knives. The Drop Point's versatile shape and dimensions allow you to confidently carve up game, perform delicate woodwork, and handle cooking outdoors and at home. The natural handle provides a stable grip even with a wet or gloved hand, which is especially important when fishing or in bad weather.
Restrictions and what to consider before buying
- The knife is not intended for power work (for example, opening metal cans, chopping large bones, prying heavy objects), since the extreme hardness of the S390 reduces impact resistance and tolerance to lateral loads.
- It is not recommended for permanent work on very hard surfaces without special edging — sharpening requires skills and tools.
- Black hornbeam does not like prolonged contact with water and aggressive detergents.
Striking advantages and uniqueness
- The use of premium S390 steel with HRC 70 is a guarantee of impeccable long—lasting sharpness and the highest performance.
- Handmade by the master — the unique character of each knife, individuality in every detail.
- The aesthetics and reliability of the black hornbeam handle are a reflection of tradition and respect for the craft.
- Versatility and manageability of the Drop Point form — from field tasks to the kitchen.
- Leather scabbard included for safe transportation and storage.
Care recommendations and outcome
To maximize the blade's service life, wipe it regularly after use, store it in dry conditions, and lubricate it with oil periodically. The handle made of black hornbeam also likes to be treated with care — from time to time, treat it with a special oil for wood.
A brief recommendation:
This knife is perfect for lovers of premium tools with maximum sharpness, hunters, tourists and collectors who appreciate impeccable cutting and style. For domestic rough use, heavy scrap work, or those who are not ready to pay attention to the care of premium steel, it is better to choose a different model.
