Technical analysis and materials
The knife is made of premium S390 powder steel with a hardness of 70 HRC. It is one of the most modern and technologically advanced steels used in the manufacture of elite cutting tools. The 3 mm thick and 135 mm long Normal Blade blade demonstrates versatility for most work tasks, maintaining a balance between cutting accuracy and the required strength.
The handle is made of rare and valuable materials — ironwood, carbon fiber and black hornbeam. The combination of these materials provides exceptional durability, weather resistance and luxurious aesthetics: carbon fiber gives lightness and modernity, ironwood is responsible for maximum durability, and black hornbeam adds tactile comfort even during prolonged work.
The scabbard is made of genuine leather, which emphasizes handwork and care for details.
Advantages and features of operation
- Exceptional sharpness and cutting ability: The S390 has high hardness and wear resistance, the knife retains its fabric sharpening for a long time even with regular use.
- Excellent corrosion resistance: The chemical composition of S390 steel provides resistance to moisture and adverse conditions, which allows the knife to be used outdoors and near water without the risk of rapid corrosion.
- Perfect ergonomics: the correctly calculated length and shape of the handle, as well as the special grip due to the combination of carbon fiber and wood, guarantee a confident grip with gloves and bare hand, even in wet conditions.
- Easy maintenance: despite the hardness of the S390, the steel lends itself well to sharpening with specialized tools. The materials of the handle do not require complicated maintenance: it is enough to wipe after use.
- Exclusivity and status: a knife with a similar combination of materials and steel will be a worthy purchase for collectors and connoisseurs of original products.
Scope and limitations
The knife is great for tourism, hunting, woodwork, fishing, as well as as a universal helper in nature and in everyday life. The high hardness and wear resistance of the blade make it ideal for precise cuts, cutting, filleting and even minor carpentry work. The handle behaves perfectly in all weather conditions, which is especially important for expeditions and long hikes.
Limitations: due to the high hardness (70 HRC), it is not recommended to use a knife for chopping bones, opening metal or hard packages, as well as as a tool for heavy impact loads — this can lead to chipping of the cutting edge. It is not intended for heavy construction or tactical tasks where breakage is required.
Care recommendations
- Clean and dry the blade and handle after use, especially after contact with salt water or an aggressive environment.
- To keep the factory sharp, use specialized diamond or ceramic sharpeners.
- The materials of the handle are practically maintenance-free, but it is recommended to periodically lubricate the wood elements with oil to extend their service life.
- Keep the knife in its complete leather sheath in a dry place.
Brief conclusions and recommendations
This knife is the best choice for those who appreciate the highest quality of materials, cutting properties and aesthetic perfection. It is especially suitable for hunters, tourists, handmade connoisseurs and collectors. If you are looking for a versatile work tool for nature and agriculture with an emphasis on long—term preservation of the cutting edge and impeccable ergonomics, this model will be your faithful companion. For extremely heavy work with impact loads, it is better to use specialized knives.
