Blade steel: X12MF.X12MF is one of the best tool steels used for the manufacture of professional knives. It has a very high hardness (61-62 HRC), which guarantees long-term preservation of the cutting edge and outstanding wear resistance. Due to chrome alloying, the steel is resistant to corrosion and moisture, but requires minimal maintenance: after use, it is enough to wipe and, if necessary, apply a light layer of oil.
Handle material: Karelian birch, black hornbeam, nickel silver.The combination of precious woods not only gives the handle an exclusive aesthetic, but also provides a secure grip even in a wet hand. Karelian birch is famous for its density and resistance to buckling, and black hornbeam has high hardness and is practically not susceptible to abrasion. The nickel-silver elements emphasize the handwork and give the knife the status of a collector's item.
Blade parameters.Blade length — 180 mm, thickness — 3 mm, width — 40 mm. This balance of sizes is optimal for universal tasks in nature, in everyday life, as well as as a hunter's knife. The blade is massive enough for confident cuts, but not overloaded, which makes it easier to work for a long time without fatigue.
Scabbard: genuine leather. Reliable leather scabbard protects the blade during transportation, emphasizing the status of an exclusive handmade product.
Hold it in your hand.Thanks to the successful combination of shapes and materials of the handle, the knife fits perfectly in the palm of your hand, does not slip even in wet conditions, providing confident control during any type of work.
Features of the blade shape. (There is no data on the specific form.) However, taking into account the dimensions and thickness of the blade, it is possible to assume a balanced universal shape suitable for most tasks — from planing to cutting.
