Detailed analysis of the characteristics and features of the knife
K340 blade steel — professional durability and durability:
The blade is made of Austrian Boehler K340 tool steel, one of the leaders in wear resistance among modern steels. Due to its high hardness (62 HRC), the knife retains its sharpness even with intensive use, is resistant to micro-chips and does not require sharpening for a long time. The K340 has excellent corrosion resistance due to chromium alloying, so the product works reliably in conditions of high humidity both in hunting and in everyday life. At the same time, the optimal balance between hardness and viscosity prevents excessive brittleness of the blade.
Drop Point Blade Shape — versatility and control:
The classic shape of the Drop Point provides excellent handling of the cutting edge and the point, making the knife ideal for precision work — cutting meat, skinning, milling and cooking. The proportions of the blade (length 123 mm, width 26 mm, thickness 2.5 mm) create comfort and maneuverability, while maintaining sufficient strength for strength tasks. The guard increases safety during cutting by preventing the hand from slipping onto the blade.
Karelian birch and artificial stone handle — comfort and style:
The handle (125 mm) is made of natural stabilized Karelian birch with artificial stone elements, which gives the knife a unique appearance and increased wear resistance. The material fits perfectly in your hand: It does not slip even in wet conditions, provides a reliable, confident grip on hunting, hiking and in the kitchen. The wood stabilization protects the handle from moisture absorption and deformation, while the artificial stone serves as an aesthetic and practical accent.
Durability, maintenance and ease of maintenance:
The K340 tool steel allows the knife to be operated in harsh conditions without significant blade wear. However, hardness above average requires careful handling when sharpening — it is recommended to use diamond or ceramic abrasives. To maintain perfect condition, it is enough to wipe the blade dry after use and lubricate it with oil periodically, especially when in contact with aggressive media. The handle made of stabilized birch does not require special care, it is enough to avoid prolonged contact with very hot surfaces.
Features of the scabbard:
The leather sheath ensures stylish and safe storage and transportation of the knife, protecting the cutting edge and emphasizing the uniqueness of the handmade.
Scope of application, advantages and limitations
- Is optimal for: hunting (butchering, skinning), tourism, fishing, trekking, bushcraft, universal use in nature and in everyday life, collecting.
- Excellent handling and reliable grip make the knife safe and comfortable even during long-term work.
- High corrosion resistance — important for fishing and hiking.
- Aesthetic uniqueness — thanks to the combination of stabilized Karelian birch and stone, each specimen is individual and prestigious for a gift or collection.
- Limitations: it is not recommended for heavy power work on hard materials (batoning, opening metal containers, chopping large bones) — fine cutting and hardness make the blade sensitive to extreme loads. It is not suitable for prolonged exposure to salt water without care.
