Technical analysis and design features
Blade Steel:Damascus steel with a hardness of 62 HRC is a material renowned for its multi—layered structure combining strength and exceptional sharpness. Due to its high carbon content and multiple-fold technology, Damascus provides excellent retention of the cutting edge and a distinctive pattern on the surface that makes each knife unique.
Handle material: Rosewood is a valuable wood variety known for its resistance to wear, moisture resistance, and rich texture. In combination with bronze elements, the handle acquires not only a refined appearance, but also resistance to time and external factors.
The Blade:The Spear Point shape is a versatile profile that provides good penetration and a balanced ratio of tip and cutting edge. The blade thickness of 4 mm and the length of 148 mm make the knife strong enough for strength tasks, but at the same time manageable for precise work.
The scabbard: The leather scabbard is a standard of reliability and classics that protect the blade from accidental damage and give the set a complete appearance.
Unique details:The use of bronze inserts highlights the status of the handmade product and the historical continuity in the design of premium knives.
Optimal tasks and applications
A knife with a spear point shaped blade and this geometry is ideal for hiking, hunting, and versatile field tasks. Its penetrating power, sharpness and durability make the tool an excellent choice for butchering prey, outdoor cooking, small-scale carpentry and handicraft work.
The rosewood handle provides a secure grip in both dry and wet conditions, thanks to the pronounced wood texture and comfortable anatomical shape.
The high hardness of the blade (62 HRC) guarantees excellent sharpening retention when working on wood, leather, fabrics and most organic materials.
The leather scabbard is practical for constant carrying when hiking or hunting.
Resistance to moisture, corrosion and wear resistance
Damascus steel, despite its beauty and strength, requires regular maintenance to prevent corrosion, especially during prolonged exposure to moisture or after contact with acids (blood, plant sap). Rosewood is one of the most moisture—resistant rocks, which makes the handle resistant to deformation and cracks. The bronze inserts are not susceptible to rust, and the leather scabbard provides additional protection.
The wear resistance of the knife is high: damascus keeps its sharpness longer than ordinary steels, rosewood retains its appearance even with intensive use.
Ease of maintenance and special care
It is recommended to wipe Damascus steel dry regularly after use and periodically lubricate the blade with oil to protect it from moisture. The rosewood handle should be cleaned with a soft cloth and, if necessary, the wax coating should be renewed to maintain shine and protection. Sharpening requires precision — high carbon content requires the use of high-quality abrasives, but in return you get incredible sharpness and cutting characteristics.
Limitations and application features
The knife is poorly suited for heavy chopping operations on bones, metal objects, frozen foods — despite its strength, Damascus steel can be vulnerable to chipping under excessive transverse loads.
It is not recommended to use a knife as a pry bar, screwdriver, for hitting hard surfaces or chopping large branches — such a tool is designed for delicate and responsible work, not for rough handling.
It is not intended for continuous operation in a deeply humid or aggressive environment (for example, like a fishing knife at sea) without proper care.
Recommendations and conclusion
This knife is the choice of handmade connoisseurs, collectors, hunters and tourists, for whom not only practical qualities but also aesthetics are important. It is ideal for a gift, for use in hiking, hunting, for everyday and creative tasks in nature. Recommended for connoisseurs of unique products and anyone who wants to use a tool with a historical heritage and status.It requires minimal but regular maintenance — attention to the blade and hilt, which pays off with excellent preservation of sharpness and appearance.
