Precise analysis of properties and features
Blade steel — H12MF: This Russian tool steel is known for its impressive wear resistance and high hardness (61-62 HRC), which provides the blade with long-lasting sharpness and excellent cutting ability. Due to the chromium content, steel has moderate corrosion resistance — it tolerates moisture well with careful care, but is not completely stainless, therefore it requires regular drying and lubrication after use in humid conditions.
Wear resistance and durability:The 2.4 mm thick blade with a length of 128 mm is the optimal combination for universal use: from precision household work to outdoor tourism tasks. X12MF steel is renowned for its resistance to discoloration and burr formation, even when used in harsh conditions, but under aggressive fracture loads it may be less ductile.
Ease of maintenance:Due to its high hardness, the knife retains its sharpness for a long time. However, for high—quality sharpening, you will need a water stone or a diamond tool - an ordinary shovel will not be effective enough.
Unique handle made of Karelian birch and nickel silver: Karelian birch is an elite natural material with an expressive texture, which not only makes the knife stand out aesthetically, but is also practical: the wood is stable, resistant to moisture, and feels good in the hand, even if the palm is wet or gloved. The nickel-silver details (guard) give the handle additional reliability and a classic appearance.
Form and balance: The ergonomics of the handle, 125 mm long, is universal for most palms, and allows you to work confidently in both a strong and precise grip. The reminiscent form of the legendary NKVD "finks" provides effective finger control and protection with a guard.
Wooden Scabbard:They are made to match the handles, provide reliable storage and transportation, emphasizing the status of the product and the traditions of handmade work.
Optimal tasks and applications
- Multi-purpose knife for hiking, hunting, fishing: ideal for cutting game, cooking, woodwork and small-scale camp construction.
- A collectible knife reflecting the historical and aesthetic heritage of classic "finks" is perfect for a gift or to add to the collection of a connoisseur of traditional edged weapons.
- Household use: it can handle most household tasks that require precise and confident cutting.
Limitations and contraindications
- It is not recommended for heavy household work (cutting, opening metal containers), as well as for use in the marine environment without regular maintenance — steel X12MF is not completely stainless!
- High hardness requires careful sharpening to avoid excessive pressure and use a suitable abrasive.
- The wooden handle and scabbard are contraindicated for permanent exposure to wet conditions without maintenance: it is recommended to avoid prolonged wetting and dry thoroughly after use.
Unique features and advantages
- A historical replica of one of the most recognizable knives of the 20th century, the NKVD Finki, recreated with attention to the authenticity of shapes and materials.
- Handmade: each specimen has a personality and a unique texture of noble Karelian birch.
- Aesthetics and durability: nickel silver and stabilized wood are not only beautiful, but also practical.
Care recommendations and final conclusion
To preserve the excellent properties of the knife, it is recommended to wipe the blade dry after each use and periodically lubricate it with gun oil; it is advisable to treat the handle with a special oil for wood. Sharpening is carried out using water or diamond stones, taking into account the high hardness.
Who is this knife for? The optimal choice for those who appreciate historical authenticity, handmade work and want to get a truly versatile, durable and elegant tool for outdoor activities, collecting or a gift. For the hardest work and extremely humid conditions, it is better to choose a specialized knife made of stainless steel and with a synthetic handle.
