Technical features and materials
The blade is made of Damascus steel, characterized by high hardness (HRC 62) and excellent wear resistance. The multi—layered structure of the damascus provides excellent fracture strength and cutting resistance, and also gives each knife a unique, inimitable pattern - a response to the history of ancient blacksmithing traditions. This steel is highly resistant to blunting and holds the edge perfectly even with intensive kitchen use.
Thin blade (thickness 1.4mm, length 155 mm, width 38 mm)promotes precise, filigree cuts — this knife is ideal for slicing, chopping, peeling vegetables, fruits, fish or meat into pieces that require high precision. The Drop Point shape is great for controlling the cutting line and provides versatility in kitchen tasks.
The handle is made of natural birch bark, an eco—friendly, light and warm to the touch material with a natural texture for a confident grip even with wet hands. Birch bark absorbs moisture well, but after proper processing, it is resistant to swelling and deformation, providing a reliable and comfortable grip during prolonged operation.
For storage and transportation, the knife is equipped with a genuine leather sheath, which emphasizes the premium nature of the product and protects the blade from external influences.
