About presented Wild1

Sandvik 14C steel

Wild1 has a full tang construction, it is made of one section of steel running along the entire length and width of the handle to which the scales are attached. The whole knife is therefore made of Sandvik 14C stainless steel. It is a steel characterized by high corrosion resistance, ease of sharpening and considerable resilience.

Utility blade

The blade of the knife is made in the drop point style, flat grind and a dark stonewash finish. The style in which the blade was made determines its optimal functionality and dedicates it to perform any type of work. The spine of the blade has a jimping for greater comfort of work in more difficult conditions.

Ergonomic Pakkawood handle

The handle of the knife is made of Pakkawood (a synthetic composite of wood and resin with greater resistance and durability than ordinary wood) and attached to the steel structure with screws. This allows you to create a very comfortable grip. The handle has an ergonomic profile which prevents the hand from slipping on the cutting edge during operation. The handle ends with a steel glass breaker or hammer, which is an integral part of the structure. It also has a hole for a lanyard.

Leather sheath with ferro rod

In the set with the knife we get a sheath made of brown leather. The sheath is equipped with ferro rod, as well as a dangler for carrying the knife in a lower vertical position. The sheath has been tastefully decorated with strong seams and embossed manufacturer’s logo.
