Analysis of technical characteristics and features
Blade steel: X12MF
X12MF is a high—alloy tool steel known for its outstanding hardness (61-62 HRC), excellent wear resistance and high ability to maintain cutting edge sharpness for a long time. Due to this, the blade remains sharp for a long time, even with intensive use, and the hardness of the steel ensures confident cutting of hard materials. At the same time, this steel grade requires careful handling — due to its high hardness, the blade may be less resistant to strong lateral loads and impacts. The corrosion resistance of X12MF is average: with prolonged exposure to moisture, rust spots are possible on the blade, so regular maintenance and lubrication are necessary.
Blade Shape: Drop Point
Drop Point is a universal blade shape with a powerful butt and a lowered buttline to the tip. This provides excellent control for precision work, and the wide belly of the blade is ideal for cutting and planing. This profile is also suitable for tourist tasks, hunting, fish cutting and small household chores.
Blade thickness and dimensions
The 2.4 mm thickness and 102 mm cutting edge length make the knife maneuverable and easy for urban and outdoor use. At the same time, the blade width of 27 mm ensures cutting stability.
Handle material: Black hornbeam and duralumin
Black hornbeam is a valuable hard wood variety, resistant to moisture and temperature fluctuations, pleasant to the touch and non—slip even in a wet hand. Duralumin (aluminum alloy) inserts provide additional structural strength and a noble appearance. This combination of materials guarantees durability and aesthetics, emphasizing the handmade status.
Holding in hand
The handle is ergonomically shaped, non-slip, and fits well in the palm of your hand thanks to the properties of hornbeam even in wet conditions. The duralumin insert acts as an additional support, increasing safety.
Easy maintenance
The knife made of X12MF does not require frequent sharpening — the steel holds the cutting edge for a long time. If necessary, the cutting edge is relatively easy to sharpen with standard abrasives, however, to maintain optimal condition, it is recommended to use sharpening systems with diamond stones. Care includes mandatory wiping and lubrication of the blade after contact with moisture.
Scabbard
The set includes a leather scabbard, which provides comfortable and safe carrying, as well as additional protection during transportation.
Optimal scope of application
- Hiking, trekking and urban hiking: Compact size, light weight and versatile blade shape make this knife an ideal travel companion.
- Hunting and Fishing: Drop Point is best suited for butchering, skinning, handling food and minor household tasks in the field. Daily Wear (EDC): The folding design and moderate size are convenient for everyday use.
- Collectibles: the combination of valuable wood, handmade and high-quality materials makes the knife stand out from the background of mass-produced products.
Limitations and application features
- It is not intended for heavy work involving cutting of hard materials, pruning or heavy lateral loads — the high hardness of the steel reduces resistance to such influences.
- Requires regular maintenance: the X12MF blade is not stainless, always wipe and lubricate the blade after working in dampness or with food.
- It is not recommended to use a knife to open metal or hard plastic packages in order to avoid chipping the cutting edge.
Unique advantages
- Handmade: Each knife is unique, with special attention to detail and high standards of finish.
- Noble materials: the combination of black hornbeam and duralumin is not only aesthetic, but also practical for a confident grip and durability.
- Tool steel X12MF: the optimal balance of long-term retention of sharpening and cutting properties.
- Style and personality: modern and concise design will complement both the collection and support in daily activities.
Recommendations and conclusion
The knife is recommended for those who appreciate handmade quality, reliable and durable materials, and are also looking for a versatile tool for tourism, hunting, fishing or everyday wear. It is perfect for connoisseurs of collectible knives, as well as for practical users in search of a reliable EDC tool. It is not recommended for heavy work involving heavy lateral loads, chopping and work on very hard materials.
Care: After use, wipe the blade dry, store it in a dry place, and periodically lubricate the cutting edge with mineral oil. To preserve the appearance of the hornbeam handle, use special wood oils.
The key:If you are looking for premium quality handmade, appreciate the combination of durability and elegance, this knife will become a real decoration of your collection or a reliable hiking companion.
