Precise analysis of properties and design features
The Blade:It is made of Damascus steel with a hardness of 62 HRC. Damascus steel is famous for its multi-layered structure, outstanding sharpness, the ability to keep sharpening for a long time and its characteristic aesthetic pattern. The hardness of 62 HRC provides excellent wear resistance and durability of the cutting edge — the knife perfectly copes with fine and clean cutting, does not require frequent sharpening, but at the same time requires careful handling under high power loads to avoid chipping.
Blade Shape: Trailing Point is a classic oriental curve that is ideal for milling, slicing, skinning and other precision work that requires a long, smooth cut. Due to the raised tip, maximum controllability is achieved in fine and delicate work. The high blade width (35 mm) provides additional space for operation and control.
The handle: It is made of birch bark, a material traditionally used in knives of Central Asia for its lightness, pleasant texture and thermal insulation properties. Birch bark does not slip even in a wet hand, adapts quickly to temperature, and is suitable for long—term work - the hand does not get tired. The carved finish enhances grip and gives an original look, emphasizing the handiwork and uniqueness of the product.
The scabbard: The sturdy leather sheath securely locks the knife, protecting the blade and the wearer when carrying.
Optimal tasks and applications
This knife really reveals its advantages in cooking, hiking, hunting (for parsing, skinning, slicing and milling). Thanks to the filigree shape of the blade, it is easy to work with meat, fish, vegetables, herbs — both in the field and in the kitchen. The handle fits perfectly in your hand when working for a long time, which is extremely important for those who are engaged in wood carving or like to spend a lot of time cooking around a campfire.
Thanks to the elegant handle and expressive Damascus pattern, the knife can take its rightful place in the collection of lovers of ethnic and author's weapons, as well as become a status gift.
Advantages and limitations
- Advantages:
- Long-lasting sharpness and high wear resistance due to Damascus steel and high hardness.
- The perfect ergonomics of the birch bark handle is non—slip, optimal for long-term operation. Easy and fast handling for precise, filigree work on products and small details.
- Unique appearance due to birch bark carving and damask pattern — each model is individual.
- It is effective as a working tool and as a collectible/gift option.
- Limitations:
- It is not intended for heavy power work, chopping bones, opening canned food — the Damascus edge can be damaged if used improperly.
- Damascus steel requires regular maintenance and protection from moisture: despite its partial corrosion resistance, it must be protected from prolonged contact with water (wipe and lubricate the blade after use).
- Birch bark, as a natural material, does not like prolonged exposure to moisture and wet storage.
Care recommendations
After work, be sure to wipe the blade dry and periodically lubricate it with a thin layer of oil to preserve the structure of the Damascus steel. It is recommended to treat the birch bark handle with natural wood oils — this will prevent cracking and preserve a pleasant texture.
Avoid keeping the knife in a humid environment for a long time and soaking it regularly — this will protect the blade and handle from premature wear.
