Materials:
Forged from premium stainless steel hardened to 55-57 HRC, the blade delivers exceptional sharpness and remarkable resistance to abrasion. This grade of steel resists corrosion while maintaining mechanical strength, allowing the knife to withstand regular contact with hard surfaces without frequent re-sharpening. Unlike carbon steel, it requires minimal maintenance under normal use, though prolonged exposure to aggressive environments may eventually test its limits.
The handle is crafted from Padouk, a dense African hardwood with a distinctive grain and rich coloring that ranges from purple-brown to warm pink with subtle purple veining. A protective varnish seals the wood against moisture and dirt, ensuring durability and longevity.
