X12MF blade steel is a tool—grade high-carbon chrome steel known for its outstanding hardness (61-62 HRC) and excellent wear resistance. Due to its high hardness, the knife retains its sharpness for a long time even during active use, which is especially important for those who are looking for a tool for long and frequent work without the need for frequent sharpening. X12MF has moderate resistance to corrosion, but is not stainless: when used in humid conditions or in contact with aggressive media, regular maintenance is recommended (wiping, oiling the blade).
The material of the bubinga handle (African noble wood) is not only aesthetically distinguished by its unique texture and warm shade, but is also known for its durability and high resistance to mechanical influences. Bubing wood is hard, dense, well protected from moisture and microcracks, which guarantees comfort and safety of grip even during prolonged work. Thanks to the careful manual processing, the handle fits perfectly in the palm of your hand and ensures reliable control of the knife in any environment — from the kitchen to the open forest.
The shape of the blade "Normal Blade" is universal — the straight line of the butt and the beveled tip allow you to cut and stab confidently. This geometry is ideal for everyday tasks: cutting food, woodwork, cutting wood chips for a campfire, butchering fish and small meat. The blade thickness of 2.4 mm optimally combines strength with precision cutting, and the blade length of 148 mm is versatile and suitable for both tourism and agriculture.
The scabbard is made of genuine leather. it is not only durable and stylish protection, but also a guarantee of easy carrying and safety of the knife in any conditions.
