Detailed analysis of the properties and features of the knife
Blade steel M390
The blade is made of premium M390 powder steel, one of the best modern knife materials, featuring the highest wear resistance, long sharpening time and outstanding corrosion resistance. The hardness of 63 HRC indicates extreme durability, which makes the knife a real working tool for high loads and long periods without re-sharpening.
Handle material: Karelian birch
The exclusive Karelian birch handle is not only aesthetically impressive.: It is one of the most beautiful and durable natural materials with a unique natural pattern. Karelian birch fits well in the hand, does not slip even in wet conditions, provides a confident and soft grip due to the natural roughness of the wood. The material is pleasantly warm to the touch and eco-friendly.
Blade shape and parameters
The versatile Drop Point shape with a length of 120 mm, a thickness of 3.5mm and a width of 27 mm provides an excellent combination of penetration and cutting ability. The Drop Point is the gold standard for general—purpose knives: a powerful butt provides break strength, and a moderate narrowing to the tip allows you to perform a wide range of tasks, from cutting food to precision woodwork.
Hand hold and ergonomics
The 125 mm long handle comfortably fills the palm of your hand, balances the knife well, and the wood treatment eliminates slipping, even if the brush is wet or gloved. The well-thought-out geometry ensures confident control of the cutting tool with any grip.
Resistance to moisture and corrosion
M390 steel is almost non-corrosive due to its high chromium content and complex alloy: The knife is excellent for use in conditions of high humidity, dampness, when operating outdoors or near reservoirs. Karelian birch is resistant to cracking, but requires periodic treatment with a special oil or wax to protect it from moisture.
Wear resistance and durability
The combination of the M390 and Karelian birch gives a reliable, durable design: the blade is resistant to blunting during intensive use, and the handle retains its appearance with careful care. The leather scabbard provides protection when hiking and carrying.
Easy maintenance
Due to its high hardness, the knife does not require sharpening for a long time, and due to the powder structure of the M390, sharpening is relatively easy with a high-quality abrasive (especially diamond). The handle does not require complicated maintenance, it is enough to periodically treat the wood with oil to preserve its shine and structure.
Optimal knife tasks and limitations
Suitable for:
— Hiking, hunting, fishing: the versatile blade shape and corrosion resistance allow the knife to be used in the harshest conditions.
— Camping, bushcraft, woodwork, cutting fish and meat, slicing food.
— Everyday use for decisive and precise tasks.
— Collectibles: handmade, uniqueness and natural beauty of the material.
What is not suitable for:
— It is not recommended for chopping large bones, heavy impact loads (batoning on thick logs), work on metal or stone surfaces — a sharp force can damage a thin blade.
— It is not ideal for specific kitchen tasks that require ultra-thin flexible blades (for example, a fillet knife).
— Constant operation without maintenance of the wooden handle in an aggressive environment can lead to loss of aesthetics.
Unique differences
— High-tech steel M390 retains its working sharpness for a record long time.
— Unique Karelian birch handle — a natural "fingerprint" on each product.
— The Drop Point form is a versatile tool for confident and safe operation.
— Handmade at each stage — a knife with an individual character, which has no analogues in mass production.
Care recommendations
— Wipe the blade dry after use; although the M390 is resistant to corrosion, basic care will increase the service life.
— It is recommended to periodically cover the Karelian birch handle with natural oil or wax — this will preserve the color depth and protect it from moisture.
— Use high-quality abrasives for sharpening, preferably diamond stones.
— It is better to store the knife in a leather sheath in a dry place.
Summary of the final recommendation

For those who are looking for a versatile knife with modern steel and a unique natural character of the handle, the Sokol 2 will become a faithful companion on hikes, hunting or in a collection.
