Technical characteristics and features of materials
ELMAX steel (hardness 63 HRC)It is a premium—grade modern powder steel, recognized for its exceptional wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Due to the hardness of 63 HRC, the blade retains its factory sharpness for a long time, holds the cutting edge perfectly even during active operation and easily handles dense and fibrous materials. This combination of performance qualities makes the knife indispensable for those who value long-term work without frequent sharpening and stable performance in the field.
The birch bark handle is a natural classic material in demand by connoisseurs of authentic solutions and eco—style. Birch bark is light, pleasant to the touch, does not slip in a wet hand and warms up quickly, providing a reliable and comfortable grip even in cold weather. In addition, the material provides a unique appearance with a noble texture.
Dimensions and balance:The 130 mm long blade with a width of 30 mm and a thickness of 2.4 mm provides a good balance of versatility and strength. The handle length of 125 mm is optimal for a confident grip with different hands.
The genuine leather sheath holds the knife securely, prevents moisture from getting on the working elements and complements the handmade look.
Grip and ergonomics
Thanks to the birch bark handle, the knife holds securely in your hand regardless of the conditions — whether it's wet weather, rain or frost. The tactile texture and natural “warmth” of the material prevent slipping, which is especially important during long hikes, fishing, hunting or during camp work.
Resistance to wear, moisture and corrosion
Elmax is a benchmark for resistance to corrosion and moisture: you don't have to worry about rust even when operating in humid or aggressive climates, and its high wear resistance allows you to use a knife for cutting and planing hard materials without the risk of “blurring" the edges.
The natural impregnation of birch bark additionally protects the handle from moisture, however, periodic oil or wax treatment is recommended to preserve its appearance and service life.
Care, maintenance and restrictions
Elmax steel is known for its ease of sharpening at high hardness compared to other premium alloys. To maintain sharpness, it is recommended to use a good abrasive device (stones or ceramics); sharpening and straightening do not take much time.
The main limitation of the knife is due to its relatively small thickness (2.4 mm) and the universal blade structure, the product is not designed for heavy impact work (batoning, chopping large branches, hard bones). It is not recommended to use the knife as a screwdriver or crowbar.
The birch bark handle, despite its natural protection, requires delicate handling — prolonged soaking or exposure to an aggressive environment (alkalis, strong detergents) is not recommended
.
Application areas, advantages and recommendations
- It is ideal for tourism, hiking, fishing, hunting, camping and household use: the universal ratio of length, width and shape of the blade makes it possible to effectively cut, plan, skin, perform kitchen and camp tasks.
- The unique combination of ELMAX steel and birch bark gives the knife not only practical, but also collectible value — it is the choice for a connoisseur of handmade, exclusivity and natural materials.
- It is not recommended to use for chiseling hard materials, opening canned food, or heavy fishing and hunting operations where a thick and massive blade is required.
Care recommendations: After use in extreme conditions, wipe the knife dry, periodically treat the handle with natural oil or wax. Keep away from prolonged exposure to moisture and do not apply excessive mechanical loads outside the main area of use.
Short conclusion: This knife is a universal solution for nature lovers, hunters, fishermen and aesthetes who appreciate the strength of modern steel, authentic ergonomics and environmental friendliness. A true choice for those who are looking for a balance between technology and handmade tradition, while appreciating a confident grip, reliability and unique appearance.
