Technical characteristics and features of the knife
The knife is handmade using forged 95X18 steel, one of the best Russian stainless steels for blades. 95X18 steel is famous for its high corrosion resistance and durability, which makes the knife especially reliable for use in a wide variety of conditions. The 58 HRC hardness of the blade guarantees long-term retention of the cutting edge and the difficulty of notching during intensive work. The blade is 3.2 mm thick and 185 mm long with a width of 39 mm, providing excellent penetration and cutting ability, as well as good handling.
The handle is made of birch bark, a natural material that is famous for its warm, soft, "tenacious" texture. Even in wet conditions or with frozen hands, the knife is firmly held in the hand, minimizing the risk of slipping. Birch bark is lightweight, hygienic, resists moisture well and does not require complex care.
The shape of the blade, the trailing point, is characterized by a high–raised tip and an elongated cutting edge line. This geometry gives the knife excellent cutting quality, especially when cutting and skinning, as well as precise cuts. The classic leather scabbard is supplied complete, ensuring comfortable and safe wearing in all conditions.
Scope of application and optimal tasks
Thanks to the combination of forged 95X18 steel and an ergonomic birch bark handle, the knife is perfect for harsh hiking, hunting, fishing, hiking and camping. The shape of the trailing point makes the knife especially good for cutting game, skinning, precise cuts in meat and fish, working with wood and products. Secure retention is ensured even in adverse weather conditions.
The high corrosion resistance of steel allows the knife to be used in conditions of high humidity, including fishing or working near water, without fear of rust. The wear resistance and high strength of the blade ensure a long service life even under regular loads.
Advantages and limitations
- Advantages:
- Forged steel 95X18 – excellent resistance to corrosion and aggressive environments, high wear resistance and durability.
- Optimal hardness of 58 HRC – long-term retention of the cutting edge, ease of sharpening.
- The birch bark handle is warm, non–slip, pleasant in the hand, resistant to moisture.
- Trailing point – maximum efficiency in cutting and precision work.
- The leather scabbard is a classic of safety and style.
- Restrictions:
-
It is not intended for cutting hard materials (for example, bones or large branches) due to the geometry of the blade and its thickness.
- The trailing point shape is less effective for rough work involving impact loads.
- Birch bark requires regular drying after prolonged contact with moisture to preserve aesthetics and structure.
Care recommendations
To preserve the working properties of the blade, it is recommended to wash the knife after use, wipe it dry and store it in dry conditions, especially after contact with aggressive media or salt water. For birch bark handles, regular care with natural oil treatment is optimal to maintain its moisture-repellent properties, while avoiding prolonged soaking. Leather scabbards should also be treated periodically with special leather products.
Conclusion and recommendations
This knife is an excellent choice for hunters, fishermen and travelers who appreciate the combination of reliability, classic aesthetics and handmade. It will perfectly prove itself as a basic knife in nature, for cutting, skinning and working with products – especially in conditions where corrosion resistance and comfort in the hand are important. For collectors, the combination of traditional materials and thoughtful ergonomics is valuable. If your task is heavy woodwork, heavy logging or scrap loads, it is better to consider other models. For those who appreciate real practicality and those who are looking for a balance of beauty and functionality, this is the perfect choice.
