Technical characteristics and design features
The replica of the NKVD finca is made of premium S390 tool powder steel with a hardness of 70 HRC — this is one of the modern standards of the highest strength and wear resistance for working and collector knives. The length of the blade is 128 mm, with a thickness of 2.4 mm and a width of 25 mm, which provides an excellent combination of handling and cutting. The handle is made of valuable Karelian birch, famous not only for its exquisite texture and fine structure, but also for its pleasant tactile impact in all weather conditions. Additional elements made of nickel silver give the model a special noble aesthetic, as well as increase the corrosion resistance and durability of the knife. The wooden scabbard in the set harmoniously complements the classic image of the knife and emphasizes its connection with the history of the legendary Soviet “finks".
Advantages and optimal application area
- Highest wear resistance and cutting edge retention: S390 steel is the standard for professional knives, guaranteeing long—term operation without sharpening, even during heavy work on wood, leather, cardboard and hard meat.
- Control and security:The guard and ergonomic shape of the Karelian birch handle ensure a secure grip even in wet or dirty hands.
- Aesthetics and durability: Karelian birch and nickel silver emphasize the status of the owner; these materials are resistant to external influences, tolerate moisture well, and are resistant to deformation and cracks.
- Versatility of form:The classic “finka” with a medium-length blade and a slight bend is ideal for hunting, camping, hiking, cutting game and practical use in the field.
- Historical value:A replica of the famous NKVD finca is a choice for collectors who appreciate tradition and authenticity.
Knife limitations
- Care of the cutting edge:The extremely hard S390 steel requires the use of special diamond or ceramic sharpening tools, standard shovels are not suitable.
- Brittleness under heavy lateral loads: The high hardness of steel reduces its impact strength — the knife is not designed for heavy work such as chopping bones or opening metal cans.
- Wooden handle: Despite the stability of Karelian birch, preventive impregnations with natural oil or wax are recommended for prolonged exposure to a humid environment or when temperatures drop.
Care recommendations
- Steel requires wiping and drying after use, especially in damp conditions.
- For sharpening, use hard abrasives (diamond, ceramic).
- It is recommended to treat the handle periodically with linseed or tung oil to preserve its smoothness, structure and protection from moisture.
- Avoid storing the knife in rooms that are too humid, especially if the knife has not been used for a long time.
Conclusion and recommendations
This replica NKVD finca is the perfect choice for those who are looking for a functional instrument with an outstanding character that combines legendary shape, premium modern materials and handwork. It is optimal for hunting, tourism, collectors and connoisseurs of history. Suitable for those who value the highest sharpness and durability, unique appearance and historical authenticity. Those who plan to use the knife for heavy breaking, power work and constant contact with aggressive environments, it is recommended to consider products with a lower hardness of the blade. This knife will be appreciated by discerning connoisseurs: it deserves to become the accent of any collection or a reliable travel companion.
