Detailed analysis of properties and features
Blade steel: Damascus, hardness HRC 62
The blade is made of Damascus steel, a durable and aesthetically expressive material with a special texture and exceptional sharpness. The hardness of HRC 62 guarantees excellent wear resistance and long-term preservation of the cutting edge, even with intensive use. The multi-layered damascus structure gives not only a unique appearance, but also increased flexibility compared to homogeneous steels, which minimizes the risk of chipping on the cutting edge. However, with such a high hardness, sharpening requires accuracy and high—quality abrasives - the blades are more difficult to quickly edit "on the knee", but they retain the perfect blade longer.
Blade shape: clip-point
The classic clip-point shape provides a sharp, thin tip, ideal for precise, controlled work and piercing. The width (32 mm) and thickness (2.4 mm) provide a balance between durability and versatility of cutting tasks. Such a blade is especially effective when processing fish and meat, working with wood, performing delicate operations on hunting and in tourist conditions.
Handle: birch bark, with guard
The handle made of natural birch bark is characterized by exceptional tactility — the material does not slip even in a wet palm, warms up quickly, does not absorb odors and gently dampens in the hand. This handle is especially convenient for long-term work, minimizing hand fatigue. The guard serves as additional protection, preventing the hand from slipping onto the blade, which is especially important during intensive or wet operations.
Resistance to moisture and corrosion
Damascus steel has moderate resistance to moisture: the multilayer structure has good anti—corrosion properties, but requires maintenance - periodic wiping and lubrication, especially after contact with moisture or products. Birch bark also requires careful handling: prolonged exposure to water and storage in a humid environment are not recommended to avoid swelling.
Scabbard: leather
The classic leather scabbard provides both reliable carrying and excellent protection of the blade during transportation and storage, adding an aesthetic accent and emphasizing the status of the handmade product.
Optimal tasks and application conditions

- Delicate work — thanks to the clip-point shape and high hardness, it is easy to perform precise incisions, punctures, processing of leather and small details.
- It is not recommended to use it for rough cutting of bones, scrap and heavy power work — a thin, sharp blade and high hardness can be prone to chipping under improper load.
- It is not suitable for long—term work in a humid environment without maintenance - it requires regular cleaning and lubrication.
- is not intended for professional kitchen use in a restaurant — it is more focused on universal use outside the home and as a collector's item.
Unique features and advantages

Care recommendations
- After use, the knife must be wiped dry, especially after contact with moisture.
- For long-term storage, it is recommended to apply a thin layer of protective oil to the blade.
- The birch bark handle does not require special treatment, but it is advisable to avoid getting too wet and storing in damp rooms.
- It is not recommended to wash the knife in the dishwasher.
- Sharpening should be done with high-quality abrasives, using medium-grained stones, carefully so as not to damage the unique pattern of the steel.
