This knife is made of forged 95X18 steel, one of the most sought—after Russian stainless steels for kitchen and travel knives. This forged steel reaches a hardness of 58 HRC, which provides excellent wear resistance and the ability to keep sharpening for a long time. The blade thickness is 1.4 mm, which makes it optimal for precise and accurate cuts without excessive resistance. The 155 mm long and 38 mm wide blade guarantees a balance between maneuverability and work area, and the versatile Drop Point shape makes it easier to control the cutting edge.
The handle is made of valuable African wenge wood, which has a high density and resistance to moisture, and is complemented by inserts of duralumin (aluminum alloy), which not only aesthetically distinguishes the knife, but also makes its design strong and durable. The handle length of 120 mm provides a comfortable grip for most users.
The set includes a leather scabbard for easy storage and safe transportation. The knife is not equipped with a lock, which is typical for kitchen knives in this category.
The Drop Point shape provides versatility: the smoothly lowered butt of the blade gives excellent control over the blade, allowing you to perform both long, long and precise cuts. The length and thickness of the blade are ideal for working with vegetables, fish, meat, and herbs, especially in domestic and professional kitchen settings. Fine sharpening promotes clean, neat cutting, which is important for the aesthetics of serving and preserving the texture of products.

Care and maintenance
95X18 steel does not require special care: it is enough to wash it with warm water after work, do not leave it in an aggressive environment for a long time and dry it before storage.

The knife is sharpened with an ordinary or fine-grained water stone; due to the high hardness of the steel, the knife retains its sharpness perfectly, which significantly reduces the frequency of maintenance.
