420H - a high-carbon martensitic stainless steel with an increased carbon (C) content of 0.17% to 0.23%, also containing chromium (Cr) and molybdenum (Mo). It offers high hardenability in the 54-58 HRC range, as well as strength, ductility, machinability and corrosion resistance. The high carbon content forms chromium carbide compounds, providing wear resistance and edge retention after hardening. Due to its high hardness, the steel is suitable for manufacturing cutting tools, knife blades, and medical instruments.
Blade - Bowie type with a thickness of 3.5 mm, finished giving a semi-matte effect with an elegant satin finish. Plain blade was derived with Hollow Grind, allowing to cut with considerable force both with cutting surface and sharp tip. At the base of the blade, a double-sided guard protects fingers from slipping on the blade while working.
Handle - crafted from a flexible elastomer lining that ensures a secure grip in all conditions and provides excellent vibration damping. The knife remains stable in the hand, and the textured surface of the lining allows for precise movements during tasks. The soft synthetic rubber handle is directly mounted onto the tang, ensuring exceptional rigidity and durability of the entire construction. At the rear, there is a lanyard hole for attaching a securing or decorative cord.
Sheath - handcrafted from natural cowhide leather. The sheath features an embossed manufacturer’s logo and is secured with a Prim-type snap fastener. The edges are stitched with decorative thread. Designed for vertical carry, it can be attached to a belt or gear for convenient transportation.
