Detailed analysis of properties and features
Blade steel — Damascus (hardness 62 HRC): Damascus steel has a pronounced strength, high wear resistance and aesthetic texture due to its unique pattern. A hardness of 62 HRC indicates the long-term durability of the cutting edge: the knife does not blunt for a long time, even with intensive use, it perfectly copes with fine and clean cutting. At the same time, very hard Damascus steel requires careful handling — it is more brittle than less hard steels, and it does not tolerate strong lateral loads and chipping. Damascus is better protected from rust than conventional carbon—based steels, but it is not completely stainless - fast drying is recommended after working with food or in a humid environment.
Handle — black hornbeam and duralumin: Black hornbeam is a dense, hard wood species that has a natural resistance to moisture and is minimally susceptible to deformation. Duralumin gives the structure lightness, strength and excellent ergonomics, especially in folded knives. The combination of wood and metal in the handle ensures pleasant tactile contact and secure grip in the hand even in wet conditions. The black color adds style and versatility to the product.
Dimensions and balance: The blade length is 100 mm, the thickness is 2.6 mm (with a width of 18 mm), making the knife optimal for universal tasks: fine, precise and accurate cutting, as well as light work on wood, products, packaging. The overall length when folded and the lightness due to the duralumin make it possible to always have it at hand.
Sheath — leather: Genuine leather ensures neat and stylish storage of the knife, protecting both the blade and the handle from scratches and external influences.
Scope of application and optimal tasks
Due to the balance of length, weight and high hardness, the knife is ideal for:
- Everyday wear (EDC);
- careful work in urban environments, in the countryside, while traveling;
- grocery and household tasks (cutting fruits, vegetables, bread);
- fine wood and leather carvings; for gift, image and collection purposes (excellent aesthetics of damask and wood).

- Requires minimal maintenance of the blade and handle after contact with moisture or acidic media: wipe dry, you can add light oil.
- It is not recommended to use it as the main field tool for harsh survival conditions.
Care recommendations
For the long-term service of Damascus steel, it is necessary to thoroughly clean and dry the blade after each use, avoiding prolonged contact with moisture. Periodic treatment of the blade with neutral oil is recommended. The black hornbeam handle can be wiped with a soft cloth from time to time to avoid prolonged wetting, and the duralumin elements can be wiped to prevent tarnishing.
