Analysis of the characteristics and features of the knife
Steel M390
The blade is made of premium Bohler M390 powder steel, one of the most advanced modern steels. The M390 is renowned for its outstanding wear resistance and hardness (HRC 62), allowing the knife to remain sharp for a long time even under heavy use. This steel has extremely high corrosion resistance, which makes the knife an ideal choice for use in humid environments or near water. At the same time, the M390 requires minimal maintenance: it is enough to regularly wash and thoroughly dry the blade to avoid any signs of rust.
Handle material: Karelian birch and acrylic
The handle is made of stabilized Karelian birch and acrylic, which gives the product not only a unique appearance (each pattern is unique), but also excellent resistance to moisture, temperature changes, and shock. This combination of materials feels good in the hand, does not slip even with gloves or a wet palm, and acrylic inserts additionally enhance the hygiene and durability of the handle. The natural wood insert creates a warm tactile feeling and highlights the status of the handmade product.
Blade shape: Clip-point
The classic clip-point shape is convenient for versatile tasks: the sharply defined tip is ideal for precision work, cutting, skinning, and also facilitates control and penetration during punctures. The wide blade (36 mm) does an excellent job with slicing and planing, and the 2.4 mm thickness makes the knife strong enough for most household and camping tasks without weighing it down.
Ergonomics and grip reliability
The ergonomic shape of the handle in combination with the guard ensures a confident and safe hold of the knife in any environment. Even when working with gloves or wet hands, the knife does not slip out, and the presence of a guard prevents fingers from slipping onto the blade.
Leather sheath
The set includes a genuine leather sheath that securely locks the knife, protects it from mechanical damage and makes transportation safe.
Scope of application, advantages and limitations
- Optimal tasks: Hiking and hiking, hunting (butchering, skinning), fishing, versatile outdoor activities, collecting. Due to the strength of the blade and the resistance of steel to wear, the knife is perfect for long expeditions, as well as for working with food and wood.

- Limitations and non-target scenarios:
- It is not recommended for heavy work on metal, concrete, stone or for use as a tire iron.
- The blade thickness and shape are not optimal for powerful power cutting (batoning on thick logs) — the knife is designed for delicate, precise and medium-load use;
- In home cooking conditions, it can be inconvenient to work with thin products due to the thickness and shape of the blade.
Unique features and care
The combination of M390 steel with a hardness of 62 HRC and a Karelian birch-acrylic handle sets this knife apart from most serial and even many custom models. The aesthetics of wood and the reliability of modern materials make it not only a working tool, but also a worthy collector's item.
Care recommendations: After use, wash and dry the blade, avoid prolonged contact with salts and acids. Karelian birch is not afraid of moisture due to stabilization, but once a year you can wipe the handle with wood wax to maintain its appearance. Sharpening M390 steel requires a high-quality abrasive, preferably diamond or ceramic.
Final recommendation
This model will be an ideal choice for tourists, hunters, fishermen and all connoisseurs of exclusive knives with original designs. The knife is not suitable for heavy power work, but it will become a reliable companion on a hike, hunting or in a collection.
