Detailed analysis of properties and features
S390 blade steel: The blade is made of high–tech powder steel Boehler S390, one of the hardest and most wear-resistant steels in the modern knife industry. Due to its hardness of 70 HRC, the knife has a phenomenal cutting edge resistance and retains its sharpness even with intensive use. This steel is famous for its excellent toughness, incredible wear resistance and high strength, which makes the knife indispensable when working with hard and abrasive materials. However, S390, like most high-hardness steels, requires careful maintenance: after working in wet conditions, it is recommended to wipe and lubricate the blade to avoid minimal corrosion (despite its good overall corrosion resistance, the knife is not completely stainless).
Handle: stabilized Karelian birch and nickel silver.The stabilized Karelian birch is not only decoratively unique – the purple hue and exquisite pattern make each knife an individual work of art – but also practical. Due to the stabilization process, the wood becomes resistant to moisture, temperature changes and mechanical influences. Inserts made of nickel silver (a precious alloy with a silver sheen) add elegance, nobility and structural strength. The handle has outstanding ergonomics – the optimal length (125 mm) and shape ensure a secure and comfortable hold of the knife in both dry and wet conditions, preventing slipping even during prolonged use.
Blade Shape: Normal Blade with hook.The classic shape of the blade (Normal Blade) with an expressive "fish hook" (hook) is specially adapted for thinning, cutting fish, skinning and other delicate jobs where filigree precision and the ability to quickly cut are required. The height of the blade (25 mm) and the thickness of the butt (2.4 mm) guarantee an optimal combination of strength and maneuverability.
The scabbard: Genuine leather is not only a traditional and wear–resistant material for storing a knife, but also an excellent option for convenient transportation and quick access to the tool.
Optimal application
- Fishing: An ideal choice for professional and enthusiastic fishermen, thanks to the specialized fish gutting and thinning hook.
- Hunting: Perfect for butchering game, skinning, making precise cuts, and handling trophies.
- Tourism, camping: versatile for outdoor cooking, slicing goods, and camp work.
- Collectibles: the unique author's work, the design of the handle and the use of elite materials make the knife a true example of art.
Advantages and limitations
- Advantages:
- Extreme hardness and wear resistance of S390 steel – long service life of the tip without frequent sharpening;
- Excellent aesthetics thanks to the stabilized Karelian birch and ornaments made of nickel silver – each knife is unique;
- Ergonomics of the handle — reliable grip in all conditions, non-slip;
- High resistance of the handle to moisture, fungus, temperature changes;
- The optimal blade shape for precise work on fish and game.
- Limitations:
- It is not recommended for heavy chopping, scrap and power tasks (the blade thickness and profile are designed for delicate work);
- High—hardness steel requires careful sharpening - it is better to use specialized abrasives and sharpeners;
- Despite its good corrosion resistance, the S390 is not completely stainless, requiring simple but systematic maintenance. It is not intended for handling frozen food and bones (to avoid chipping the sharp edge).
Care recommendations
- Wipe the blade dry after each use, especially after contact with moisture or food;
- Periodically apply a thin layer of protective oil to the blade for additional corrosion protection;
- Do not use abrasive materials to clean the handle – just wipe with a soft cloth;
- Sharpen the tip only with high-quality abrasives recommended for powder steels (diamond or ceramic systems);
- Store the knife in a dry place, in a complete leather sheath.
Final recommendation
This knife is an ideal choice for anglers, hunters and collectors who appreciate practicality, exclusive appearance and absolute precision. Its high hardness and unique ergonomics make it a reliable helper in delicate carving and gastronomic tasks in nature. It is not recommended for heavy economic and construction applications or tasks requiring brute force - here the superiority of the knife lies precisely in its filigree precision, durability and aesthetic perfection. Choose this knife if a combination of technology, handwork and individual style is important to you.
