Precise detailed characteristics and advantages
Blade steel — D2 (hardness 64 HRC):
The blade is made of D2 tool steel with an outstanding hardness of 64 HRC. D2 is a well—known powder steel with high wear resistance and long cutting edge retention. This means that the knife will stay sharp longer even under intense loads, minimizing the need for frequent sharpening. D2 is more resistant to corrosion than standard carbon steels, but it does not belong to classic stainless steels, so it requires careful maintenance after working in a humid environment.
The handle is made of natural birch bark:
The birch bark handle is lightweight, has a pleasant texture and provides a secure grip even with wet or frozen hands. The natural structure of the birch bark prevents slipping, and the warm natural base is especially comfortable for prolonged use in the cold. In addition, birch bark is eco-friendly and emphasizes the handiwork and uniqueness of each specimen.
Blade Shape — Drop Point:
The classic Drop Point shape is renowned for its versatility: It is ideal for most tasks, from household and tourist tasks to cutting work on hunting and fishing. The wide edge of the blade gives additional strength when cutting and prying, and the balanced bending of the cutting edge makes the knife convenient and safe for precise manipulation.
Dimensions:
The blade length of 123 mm, width of 28 mm and thickness of 2.4 mm is the optimal balance between maneuverability, control and reliability, and the handle length of 125 mm fits perfectly into the middle palm, providing a secure grip when working.
Leather sheath:
High-quality leather scabbard will not only emphasize the status of the owner, but also ensure reliable storage and convenient transportation of the knife, preventing accidental damage.
Scope and strengths
- Hiking, camping, bushcraft: a versatile cutting tool for cooking, household chores, cutting fish and game.
- Hunting: Due to its hardness, Drop Point geometry and reliable handle, the knife is perfect for skinning, butchering and other delicate work.

Limitations and scenarios for which the knife is not recommended
- It is not recommended for work on hard materials (metal, concrete, large bones) — the blade thickness of 2.4 mm is designed for cutting, not for chiseling or batoning heavy wood species.
- Contact with aggressive media (salt water, acids) requires additional care — D2 is stable, but not completely stainless.
- It is not suitable for heavy chopping and use as a machete due to the geometry and thickness of the blade.
Care recommendations
- After use in a humid environment, it is recommended to wipe the blade dry and apply a thin layer of oil to protect against corrosion.
- The birch bark handle should be periodically treated with natural wax or oil to maintain its water-repellent properties and maintain aesthetics. Sharpening: carbon steel D2 requires high-quality diamond or ceramic abrasives, but the sharpness lasts a long time due to its high hardness.
- Storage in dry conditions, it is also advisable to keep genuine leather scabbards in a non-hot room away from direct sunlight.
