80CrV2 (NCV1) - a low-alloy tool steel suitable for knives of various sizes. Easy to machine in the raw and softened state. Easy to heat treat and reasonably resistant to its errors. Due to its not too great hardenability, a hamon is possible with selective hardening. Very resistant to cracking, making it suitable for both larger knives and smaller, harder working knives such as bushcraft type. With heat treatment aimed at obtaining higher hardnesses > =60 HRC, it will be great for smaller knives that hold their sharpness better, e.g. hunting knives.
Blade - extremely sharp with Drop Point profile, with marked belly, ideal for all kinds of work. Finished with an elegant satin finish, the Plain blade is derived with a Flat Grind, typical of Scandinavian knives, this profile provides tremendous strength while maintaining excellent cutting performance.
Handle - grips made of beautiful ash wood, screwed directly to the blade with black screws. They provide excellent ergonomics and a secure grip. The symmetrical design of the Handle allows you to hold the knife in both sides, especially for users who appreciate an inverted grip.
Sheath - an extended sheath that protects the Blade along with part of the Handle, made of cowhide. Handmade, decorated with hems. Attaching to the belt with a loop allows to carry the knife in an upright position.
