Blade steel — Böhler K340:
K340 high-alloy tool steel is renowned for its outstanding wear resistance, hardness (62 HRC) and excellent toughness. This steel is resistant to discoloration, retains its sharpness longer and withstands intensive use, especially when working with hard or abrasive materials. Thanks to its special alloying, the K340 demonstrates high corrosion resistance, which allows it to be used in conditions of high humidity or on long hikes without the risk of rapid rust. However, steel requires basic maintenance: after use, it is advisable to wipe the blade and store it dry.Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
The handle is Wenge and artificial stone:
African wenge wood has a high density and moisture resistance, while artificial stone adds strength and wear resistance to the handle. This combination provides an excellent grip even in wet hands, the handle is non-slip, does not absorb odors and is resistant to abrasion. Ergonomics are designed for long—term operation - the knife is comfortably and securely held in the palm of your hand, preventing hand fatigue.
Blade shape and construction:The
classic shape of the Normal Blade, with a length of 148 mm, a thickness of 2.6 mm and a width of 32 mm, perfectly combines versatility and precision. This geometry perfectly copes with slicing, cutting fish, meat, working on products and with dense materials. The guard protects the hand from slipping on the cutting edge, which is especially important during power work or when operating with gloves.
The scabbard:
Genuine leather guarantees reliable fixation of the knife during carrying, classic appearance and durability.
Applications, advantages and limitations
Optimal tasks and usage scenarios:
- Hiking, hunting, fishing: thoughtful ergonomics and high wear resistance make the knife an ideal companion for hiking and fishing.
- Field kitchen: the knife perfectly cuts meat, fish, processes food and is suitable for working with wood.
- Survival, bushcraft: thanks to the strength of steel, the reliability of the handle and the protective guard, the knife copes with difficult field tasks.

-
It is not intended for the finest filigree work on products or decorative carving.
- It is not recommended to use it for rough cutting of metal or as a mounting tool — the steel is hard, but excessive force can cause chipping. Due to the classic shape, it is not the best choice for skinning work (it is better to choose specialized blades with a bend).
Unique advantages and differences
• The balance of hardness and ductility of K340 steel — the blade keeps sharpening for a long time, does not fade, while it is quite easy to edit.
• Exclusive handle: Natural wenge has a unique texture, while artificial stone increases the service life.
• The Garda is an element of historical tradition that increases security.
• Completely handmade: each knife is unique, which guarantees the individuality of the product.
• A technological combination of aesthetics and practicality: the knife is not only beautiful, but also designed for everyday complex tasks.
Care recommendations

• To maintain the bright appearance of the handle, treat the wood with special wax or oil every few months.
• Artificial stone does not require additional care.
• Sharpening with a conventional diamond, ceramic, or abrasive stone; due to the properties of the K340, blade edging is infrequent — the knife retains its sharpness for a long time.
• Keep the knife in a leather sheath in a dry, ventilated place.
