Technical analysis and design features
- Blade steel: Elmax (hardness 63 HRC)
Elmax is a modern premium powder steel, recognized as one of the best for high-level knives. The hardness of 63 HRC ensures excellent safety of the cutting edge: the knife remains sharp for a long time during active use. This steel has excellent wear resistance and durability, is resistant to mechanical damage and aggressive influences, perfectly balancing between rigidity and elasticity. Elmax has high corrosion resistance — the knife is not afraid of moisture, suitable for use in wet weather, when cooking outdoors, fishing or hiking. - Handle: Wenge cap, nickel silver (set)
The African wenge tree is famous for its pronounced texture and excellent resistance to wear and moisture. The combination with nickel silver (a noble alloy with a characteristic luster) not only emphasizes the uniqueness of the product, but also increases its practicality: the handle is resistant to drying and warping, does not slip even in a wet hand. The cap gives each handle an individual, unique pattern. The set design provides additional strength and comfortable grip ergonomics. - Blade geometry and dimensions
The classic shape of the Normal Blade is versatile: the straight line of the butt and the moderate rise to the tip ensure a good balance between control during precise operation and the efficiency of a long cut. The blade length of 148 mm and a thickness of 2.4 mm make the knife equally suitable for delicate and strength tasks. The blade width (32 mm) provides convenience when cutting and slicing food. - Scabbard: Leather
High-quality leather scabbard ensures reliable fixation of the knife, protects the blade and emphasizes the status of the handmade product.
Optimal tasks and application conditions
- The best choice for tourists, hunters and fishermen: high corrosion resistance and blade strength allow the knife to be used in all weather conditions, including in contact with wet organic materials.
- It is great for camping, field cooking, cutting game and fish, as well as any household or household tasks in nature.
- Thanks to the ergonomic and non—slip handle, it is safe when working with wet or dirty hands.
- The elegance and individuality of the design make this knife a point of pride in the collection or a wonderful gift for a connoisseur of handmade.
Strengths and limitations
- Advantages:
- Maximum resistance to wear and corrosion due to Elmax steel.
- The handle made of wenge cap and nickel silver is as comfortable, aesthetic and resistant to moisture as possible.
- The universal shape of the blade is effective in hunting, fishing, hiking and everyday life.
- Handmade by the author. Each instance is unique.
- Easy maintenance: Elmax keeps sharpening well, needs less edging.
- Restrictions:
- It is not intended for cutting hard objects (bones of large animals, trees) — the thickness and shape of the blade are designed for cutting, and not for heavy lateral loads or heavy batoning.
- It is not recommended for work requiring a very powerful butt and extreme breaking strength (for example, use as a tire iron).
Care recommendations
- Wipe the blade dry after use, especially if the knife has been in contact with acidic or aggressive media.
- For the handle, avoid prolonged exposure to extreme dampness; periodically treat the wood with natural oil to preserve the color depth.
- Keep the knife in a dry place, in a complete leather sheath.
- Use high-quality stones or powder steel systems to maintain sharpness. Elmax is easy to refine and needs to be adjusted less frequently than conventional steels.
Conclusion and selection recommendations
Gadfly 2 is the choice for those who are looking for a versatile, aesthetic and practically indestructible handmade knife for tourism, hunting or outdoor activities. Its combination of high-tech steel and a noble wenge cap handle harmoniously combines functionality, status and personality. It is especially suitable for those who appreciate durability, reliability in any conditions and the originality of the product. It is not suitable for heavy "scrap" work and professional woodwork with large blows.

Здравствуйте. Получил нож овод 2 сталь элмакс, первое впечатление: нож внешне очень красивый и удобный но недочеты присутствуют, 1 заточка не равномерная 2 проточка клинка на обухе не симметричная 3 на мельхиоре возле клинка какие то
вздутия. Мелочи а неприятно. Впечатления после разделки зайца: рез очень легкий удобно свежевать, но после разделки тушки обнаружил на лезвии клинка сколы. Почему нож из хваленой стали элмакс имеет такие недочеты???
