Blade steel: X12MF is a high—alloy tool steel with outstanding wear resistance and hardness (61-62 HRC). The blade retains its sharpness perfectly even during prolonged operation, resists mechanical stress well, and is slightly susceptible to abrasion.
Blade shape: Fillet Blade is a narrow, flexible and elongated blade 1.8 mm thick, 20 mm wide and 120 mm long. This geometry is ideally suited for fine, filigree work: fillets, skinning, careful slicing of meat and fish, especially in camping and field conditions.
Handle: G10 is a modern composite that does not absorb moisture, is resistant to chemicals and temperature, and has a tenacious texture. The green color gives the product a stylish and original appearance.
Lock type: Liner-lock is a reliable and secure mechanism for folding and locking the blade, which ensures safe use of the knife with one hand and prevents accidental closing.
Set: leather sheath — increased knife protection and easy carrying.
Scope of application and operational advantages
Sirloin work: an ideal choice for cutting fish, removing fillets and skin in thin layers, working with medium and low density meat — both in the kitchen and outdoors.
Fishing, hiking, hunting: compact folding format and easy cleaning make the knife an indispensable companion for outdoor enthusiasts.
Grip safety and reliability: The G10 guarantees a tenacious grip even in wet and dirty conditions; the handle shape and light weight allow you to work for a long time without shoulder and hand fatigue.
Corrosion and moisture resistance: X12MF is not stainless steel, but G10 and proper operation allow the knife to be used outdoors and near water. It is important to wipe and dry the blade in a timely manner after contact with moisture.
Wear resistance and durability: high hardness and high-quality hardening ensure a long service life even with intensive use for its intended purpose.
Easy maintenance: X12MF holds sharpness well, but due to its high hardness, it is better to use water stones or special diamond systems for sharpening. The G10 requires minimal maintenance and is easy to clean.
Limitations and areas where the knife is ineffective
It is not suitable for heavy chopping, chopping, planing wood or opening hard materials — the thin flexible blade is designed only for delicate operations.
It is not recommended for opening canned food, working with bones and other tasks where a massive blade geometry is required.
The X12MF steel, although resistant to mechanical stress, requires maintenance: after use, wipe the blade thoroughly dry and store it in a dry sheath.
The lightweight G10 handle does not provide additional weight, which may be a disadvantage for fans of heavy “working” knives.
Key advantages and unique features
A balance between ergonomics, ease of maintenance and maximum functionality for fillets and delicate cutting.
The G10 provides exceptional grip in all conditions — even when working with wet or greasy hands.
The compact folding mechanism with secure locking (Liner-lock) turns the knife into a safe and convenient tool for traveling and fishing.
The high hardness and wear resistance of the X12MF steel distinguishes this knife from analogues made of less hard alloys.
Stylish appearance: the green handle perfectly distinguishes the knife from standard solutions.
Recommendations for care and withdrawal
To maintain the perfect condition of the knife, it is recommended to regularly wipe the blade dry, store it only in dry conditions and periodically lubricate the steel with light oil to prevent corrosion. The G10 handle does not require special maintenance, it is enough to clean it with a regular wet cloth.
The result: This knife is designed for those who appreciate handmade quality, cutting accuracy and reliability of materials. The loin shape makes it an ideal choice for anglers, hunters, travelers and culinary enthusiasts. If you are looking for a lightweight, safe, folding tool for delicate operations with fish and meat, this knife will become your indispensable companion. It is not recommended to use it for heavy household or carpentry work.
