Detailed analysis of the characteristics and features of the knife
Blade steel — H12MF: This tool alloy is deservedly recognized as one of the best solutions for knives focused on high wear resistance and preservation of sharpness. The hardness of 61-62 HRC ensures long—term retention of sharpening even during intensive use - the knife easily copes with cutting wood, rope and dense product. The X12MF demonstrates excellent wear resistance and durability, tolerates high loads well and is not prone to chipping when used properly. However, steel requires regular maintenance: despite its basic corrosion resistance, prolonged contact with moisture or aggressive environments can lead to traces of rust.
Handle material — birch bark:The handle made of natural birch bark is a classic of Russian hunting and hiking knives. Pleasant to the touch, the warmth of organic matter is felt even in cold weather. The surface does not slip even in a wet hand or in subzero temperatures, and the texture perfectly absorbs shocks. The material is lightweight, eco-friendly, the handle fits perfectly into the palm of your hand and does not cause fatigue during prolonged operation. However, birch bark requires care: avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct contact with fire, from time to time treat with oil or specialized formulations to preserve brightness and structure.
The shape of the blade is clip-point: The special geometry of the butt and tip ensures versatility, high penetration, control during precise work and ease of piercing movements. This shape is great for cutting, skinning, thinning, as well as performing household tasks at home and outdoors. The bevel on the butt makes it convenient to use the knife for thin cuts and small manipulations, making the tool an excellent assistant in tourism, fishing and hunting.
Size ratio:The blade length of 142 mm and thickness of 2.4 mm is a balanced solution for a universal knife: long enough for confident cutting and cutting of food, but not bulky. The 130 mm long handle fits comfortably in any medium palm, and with a leather sheath, the knife is safely carried and securely protected.
