Technical characteristics and design features
This handmade knife is made of forged 95X18 steel— a classic material with a proven reputation among professional chefs and connoisseurs of knife art. 95X18 steel is highly resistant to corrosion due to its high chromium content, and a hardness index of 58 HRC provides an effective balance between cutting edge durability and ease of subsequent sharpening.
The blade is 1.6 mm thick and 145 mm long and has a universal Drop Point shape, which is ideal for precise slicing, chopping vegetables, cutting meat and fish. This geometry ensures high control and safety during operation, and the optimal width (33 mm) is convenient for most kitchen tasks.
The handle is made of rare wenge and duralumin wood, a combination of natural warm texture and high—tech metal. Wenge gives the knife expressiveness and resistance to dirt, and duralumin provides strength and ease of grip, reducing fatigue even after prolonged work. The leather in the sheath reliably protects the blade during storage.

Its light weight and balanced shape make it possible to work for a long time and without fatigue.
Due to its high corrosion resistance, the knife can be used in humid conditions (in the kitchen, during hikes, picnics and field kitchens). The leather sheath makes it convenient for transportation and storage.
