Detailed analysis of the properties and features of the knife
Blade steel: Damask (HRC 65)
Damask steel has legendary strength and outstanding hardness (65 HRC), which ensures the highest level of wear resistance of the cutting edge. It is an ideal choice for those who value durability and confidence in working with a knife. Damask keeps sharpening well, which allows you to use the knife for a long time without the need for frequent sharpening. A significant advantage is the bulat's ability to maintain operational sharpness even with intensive use, which makes it in demand for high-load tasks.
Damask steel is moderately resistant to corrosion: moisture resistance is above average, however, with prolonged exposure to dampness, darkening or slight traces of rust may occur if care is not taken properly.
Blade Shape: Normal Blade
The classic shape of the blade (Normal Blade) is versatile and is excellent for most household and field work: from cutting food to preparing branches, cutting fish or meat. The straight line of the butt ensures cutting accuracy and reliability when piercing, and the optimal length (135 mm) and thickness (2.4 mm) parameters form an ideal balance of penetration and cutting ability.
Handle materials: Wenge, acrylic, nickel silver
The handle combines acrylic, noble wenge wood and nickel silver inserts, creating not only an exquisite appearance, but also outstanding ergonomics. Wenge is famous for its durability and moisture resistance, and acrylic inserts provide pleasant tactile contact and resistance to temperature and humidity fluctuations. The nickel silver guard serves as a stylish hand guard and gives the product a collectible charm.
Thanks to the well—thought-out shape and length of the handle (120 mm), the knife is securely fixed even in a wet or cold palm - the knife does not slip and provides confident control in all conditions.
Scabbard and operation
The leather sheath guarantees safe storage and transportation of the knife, emphasizing its handmade status and protecting the blade from accidental damage.
Care and maintenance
To maintain the perfect condition of the damask blade after use, it is recommended to wipe the blade dry and, if stored for a long time, apply a thin layer of oil. Sharpening damask requires specialized tools or experience, but due to its high hardness, the need for frequent sharpening is minimized. The handle is resistant to moisture, but if aggressive media (acids, alkalis) get on the nickel silver, it is advisable to wipe it with a dry cloth.
Optimal application area
- Field kitchen and camping tasks: The versatile blade shape and reliable handle are equally suitable for cooking, slicing, preparing firewood and other camping work.
- Hunting and fishing: the hard steel is excellent for cutting fish, meat, fine work on skin and bones — the knife is perfectly balanced for confident control with precise movements.
- Collectibles: a unique combination of materials, handmade, artistic inserts made of nickel silver and the characteristic of damask make the knife a worthy specimen in any collection.
