Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
K340 blade steel (hardness 62 HRC):K340 is a modern Austrian tool steel with outstanding wear resistance and durability characteristics. The hardness of 62 HRC indicates a high resistance to blunting and the ability to maintain the cutting edge for a long time, even with intensive use. Steel has excellent resistance to wear, which is especially important for cutting and small household chores. Due to its high vanadium and chromium content, it resists corrosion well, although knives from K340 require careful care: it is recommended to clean the blade in a timely manner and not store it for a long time in a humid environment. It is an ideal choice for those who are looking for a combination of strength and durability.
Handle material: rosewood, nickel silver; shape and hold:The handle is made of natural rosewood, an elite wood known for its luxurious texture, hardness and resistance to moisture. Rosewood is not afraid of accidental drops and light dampness, while it always feels good in the hand, does not slip even when working with gloves or wet palms. The nickel silver guard adds decoration and additional protection: it not only enhances the aesthetics of the knife, but also protects the hand from slipping onto the blade. This combination of materials ensures a comfortable and reliable grip — the knife fits perfectly into the hand, eliminating rapid fatigue during prolonged use.
Blade shape and dimensions:The "Normal Blade" type blade with a length of 135 mm, a thickness of 2.4 mm and a width of 26 mm is a universal solution, perfect for a wide range of tasks: from precise cuts to light cutting and planing. This shape has historically been associated with army and hunting knives, as it provides the most effective combination of penetration and cutting control.
Wear resistance and corrosion resistance:The K340 perfectly resists abrasive loads and does not require overfilling for a long time, even with daily use. However, despite the presence of chromium, the steel is not completely stainless.: The knife will need regular cleaning after contact with moisture and aggressive environments. Rosewood and nickel silver on the handle perfectly tolerate household humidity, do not deform and do not tarnish.
Ease of maintenance:The K340 confidently withstands regular overfilling on standard and diamond bars, although due to its high hardness, the process will require a little more time and accuracy. Rosewood does not require complex care: it is enough to periodically wipe the handle with a soft cloth, and for deep protection, you can apply a thin layer of mineral oil. Nickel silver easily retains its appearance — it is enough to avoid aggressive cleaning agents.
Scope of application: advantages and limitations
- Optimal tasks:The knife is great for hiking, hunting, fishing, versatile household tasks, outdoor cooking, butchering meat and fish, and collecting thanks to its handmade aesthetics and premium materials.
- It is not suitable for: continuous operation in conditions of aggressive chemical corrosion (seawater, acids), heavy impact work on metal or stone, as well as for prolonged work in a humid environment without timely maintenance.
Unique advantages over analogues
- K340 steel with high hardness and wear resistance guarantees a long service life of the cutting edge.
- The rosewood and nickel silver handle is not only aesthetic, but also outstanding ergonomics and resistance to household moisture.

Care recommendations

- Do not store the knife in a wet sheath for a long time. Dry the leather scabbard separately.
- To protect the steel, apply neutral mineral oil to the blade every few months.
- The rosewood handle should be wiped with a soft, dry cloth; if used frequently, it should be treated with mineral oil every six months.
- Nickel silver can be polished with a soft cloth to maintain its shine.
Summary and recommendations
The knife is an ideal choice for connoisseurs of handmade, stylish solutions and those who are looking for a versatile, durable and truly reliable tool for tourism, hunting, outdoor activities and household use. If you are looking for a knife to work in the most aggressive wet or chemically active environments, it is worth considering specialized stainless steels. For collectors and connoisseurs of aesthetics, as well as for a gift, it is an absolute favorite.
