Fallkniven Knives Descriptions
Fallkniven TF1 Taiga Forester - Desert Ironwood - Zytel Sheath
The taiga Knives are distinctive hunting and all-round Knives for the demanding user. A strong blade in laminated cobalt steel does not only mean a stable function, you notice quite quickly that the edge holds the sharpness really well without being brittle. The reason is the fine, well heat tReated and tempered steel but also the convex shaped edge that is not only strong but also wood-sharp. The Ergonomic shape of the handle provides a secure grip regardless of weather and wind.As shown in the design, TF1 is a handmade knife with a handle in the very exclusive desert ironwood (lat. Olneya tesota). This species is not listed in CITES Annexes or the IUCN Red List of Endangered Species and is therefore legal to use. Like all natural materials, it varies in texture and color, making each knife an individual creation. A beautifully veined pattern may look attractive but a straight, patterned handle is actually stronger. Desert ironwood, which grows in the southwestern United States, has a somewhat peculiar quality it is heavier than water, its density is 1.2 kg/dm³ which means it will sink. If you want to maintain or even increase the luster in the wood, treat it with log oil, furniture oil, bench oil or other type of wood oil containing linseed oil. The fact that the blade goes full width through the handle (so-called full tang blade) results in a very strong and reliable construction and gives a comfortable weight to the knife.What is a bit special about these Knives is the very secure plastic sheath where a specially designed locking system ensures that the knife is properly locked when it is placed in the sheath. It works regardless of weather and wind, sand or snow.
Fallkniven TK5 Tre Kronor Hunter Deluxe with Sheath
Tre Kronor, the Swedish knife series, offers a highly advanced technological solution combined with timeless Swedish design. As the result of a long development process, we are the first company in the world to be able to offer a laminated knife blade in 3G steel, edged with sintered steel, or powder steel. To this edge steel, we have added a resilient, anticorrosive steel which stabilises the hard centre. This gives a rigid, strong blade that retains its edge extremely well. These Knives are in the Swedish minimalist idiom, where form harmonises with function. The result is an edged implement that the user will find an easy and accomMODating knife a world-beater from Sweden.TK5 Tre Kronor de Lux Hunter.The experienced hunter will certainly like this knife! For clearing a game a knife doesnt have to be very large but well shaped. A droppoint-blade has got the right design for not cutting through membranes and guts, that is if you know how to put the cut. This three-finger knife will work properly if you place the endbutt into your palm and your fingers over the blade. The TK5 is not the regular woodcarving knife but should be considered as a pure hunting knife. Still many people like the slightly shorter size which for sure will make the TK5 a very popular allroundknife. The wood handle doesnt need any special care but a drop of furniture cream now and then wont hurt.
