Detailed analysis of the characteristics and properties of the knife
Blade steel: Elmax
The blade is made of premium Elmax powder steel with a hardness of 63 HRC. This steel is renowned for its excellent balance of hardness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Due to its high chromium content (about 18%), Elmax is practically not susceptible to rust, which makes the knife versatile even for use in humid conditions — outdoors, while fishing or hunting. At the same time, high hardness (63 HRC) It provides the knife with a long-lasting sharpness of the cutting edge and excellent wear resistance, allowing it to easily cope with intense loads and cuts on hard materials. It is worth noting that Elmax sharpening requires some experience and high-quality tools, but thanks to this, the blade keeps sharpening longer and needs less maintenance.
Handle material: Birch bark
The handle is made of natural birch bark, a traditional material that is valued for its lightness, warm tactile impact and unique natural texture. Birch bark does not slip even in a wet hand, thanks to which the knife is confidently held and does not slip out when working outdoors or during culinary tasks. In addition, this material has good thermal insulation: even in winter, the handle remains pleasantly warm and comfortable to the touch. However, natural birch bark requires careful treatment: avoid prolonged contact with an aggressive environment, oiling it to maintain strength and aesthetics, especially after moisture ingress.
Blade Shape: Normal Blade
The classic blade shape (Normal Blade) with a length of 143 mm, a thickness of 2.4 mm and a width of 30 mm is a universal solution for most household and tourist tasks. This geometry provides excellent handling, cutting accuracy and sufficient strength when performing fine and medium-load work, for example: cutting fish, slicing food, preparing branches for a campfire. The shape is also well suited for working on wood, opening packages and other daily situations in nature or at home.
Wear resistance and durability

Ease of sharpening and maintenance
The hardness of Elmax requires the use of high-quality diamond or ceramic sharpeners, but sharpening lasts a long time. For care, it is enough to wash the blade after work and periodically treat the handle with special oils for natural wood to preserve its structure and beauty.
