Analysis of technical characteristics and materials
Blade steel — Damascus steel (HRC 62):
The blade is made of high-quality Damascus steel with a hardness of 62 HRC, which provides exceptional wear resistance and long-term retention of cutting edge sharpness. Due to its complex multi-layered structure, Damascus is distinguished not only by its aesthetic expressiveness, but also by its increased strength, which is able to withstand significant loads without chipping. The special feature of Damascus is its high viscosity and the ability to combine cutting and power functions.
Corrosion resistance:
Damascus steel has a basic resistance to moisture, but requires regular maintenance — timely wiping, drying after use, periodic application of oil. This will prevent the appearance of rust and preserve the decorative structure of the steel.
Handle material — Karelian birch, nickel silver:
The end-mounted handle type made of Karelian birch with spectacular carvings and nickel silver inserts provides a unique appearance, collectible value and excellent ergonomics. This handle is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also highly resistant to moisture and durable with proper care. Karelian birch fits perfectly in the hand — the wood does not slip even with wet palms, and the nickel-silver guard increases safety during cuts and controls the sliding of the hand.
Blade: length 148 mm, thickness 2.5 mm, width 32 mm, shape of Normal Blade:
This geometry is combined with the traditional universal shape (Normal Blade) — it is a classic that is easy to operate with precise and delicate work, as well as with power cuts. The blade of medium thickness and length is optimal for a wide range of tasks: from cutting fish and meat to household hiking and hunting work.
Leather sheath:
The set includes a leather scabbard, emphasizing the premium quality of the product, ensuring reliable storage and transportation, as well as protecting the blade and the user.
