Detailed analysis of characteristics and features
Blade steel: Forged 95X18
The knife is made of forged 95X18 stainless steel, a material that is renowned for its durability, high wear resistance and excellent corrosion resistance. The hardness of the blade is 58 HRC, which ensures a balance of cutting, sharpness and ease of sharpening. Due to the optimal combination of elements in the composition, the 95X18 perfectly holds the cutting edge even during intensive work, without requiring frequent straightening. At the same time, steel has outstanding moisture resistance: the knife is practically not susceptible to rust, even if it is used in wet or field conditions.
Handle material: Bubinga, carved
The handle is made of African bubinga wood, which has been hand-carved. This material not only aesthetically distinguishes the knife, giving it a status and a unique character, but is also famous for its extraordinary density and hardness. Bubinga is resistant to moisture, is not prone to cracking, and fits perfectly in the hand thanks to its carefully treated surface, which ensures a firm grip even with gloves and wet or dirty palms.
Geometry and shape of the blade: Gut Hook
The shape of the blade is removable with a characteristic Gut Hook (skinning hook). This design allows you to quickly and accurately remove the skin without damaging the meat and insides. The 140 mm long and 35 mm wide blade provides sufficient working area, while the 3 mm thick blade adds reliability to cuts and minimizes the risk of breakage or deformation under load.
Ease of maintenance
95X18 steel lends itself well to sharpening even with simple tools, which is especially important in the field. Due to its corrosion resistance, it does not require complicated maintenance — it is enough to rinse in warm water and dry after use.
Scabbard and storage
The set includes a handmade leather scabbard, emphasizing the premium quality of the product and providing reliable protection of the blade during transportation and storage.
Scope of application, advantages and limitations
Optimal tasks:
The knife is specially designed for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts. The shape of the Gut Hook and the geometry are ideal for skinning, butchering game, and careful handling of meat in nature. Due to its ergonomics and strength properties, it will perfectly cope with long and demanding tasks in the field.
Advantages:
- High corrosion resistance: Suitable for use in fishing, rain, damp forest.
- Wear resistance — withstands intensive use without loss of cutting properties.
- The handle is non-slip and provides control even in difficult conditions. It is easy to maintain and does not require specialized chemicals or sharpening tools.
- Bubing artwork adds personality and collectible value.
Restrictions:
- The shape of the Gut Hook blade is not designed for universal kitchen applications and fine precision work where a straight or fillet knife is required. Due to the hook on the butt, it is not recommended for cutting bread, vegetables and other products where a long, even cut is required. It is not intended for cutting hard materials (bones, wood) and heavy machete-type work.
Unique moments and historical features
The Gut Hook is a classic hunting knife solution that enjoys a well—deserved reputation among professionals. The artistic handle made of valuable wood turns each model into a work of art, and hand-forged adds personality and emphasizes the status of a true master gunsmith.Care recommendations
- After work, thoroughly rinse the blade and handle with water and wipe dry.
- Store in dry conditions, preferably in a complete leather sheath.
- Periodically treat the handle with wood oil to maintain gloss and prevent drying out.
- Use standard musats or stones for regular sharpening.
Summary of the final recommendation
This skin-removing knife with a 95X18 blade and a carved bubinga handle is an ideal choice for hunters, anglers and collectors who appreciate premium materials, reliability and traditional aesthetics with an individual character. It is best used as a professional tool for cutting game, but it is not recommended for those who need a universal kitchen or camping knife "for all occasions."
