CUSTOM FOLDING KNIFE “ROYALTY OF SPORT. MICHAEL SCHUMACHER” has the blade shape of the straight back made from high quality Bohler N695 stainless steel. This form of a knife has been used since ancient times in Russian knives, classic Finnish knives, and many others. It is characterized by a simple and convenient geometry of sharpening. Descents in the center of the blade give the cutting edge strength and stability, which are very important when making a blade from conventional, traditional steels. This form has a good cutting arc and a significant overall length of the cutting edge. The tip of a knife of this type is powerful, well adapted for puncturing. Thus, the classic form with a straight butt is still popular today due to its complex qualities, but you should not expect phenomenal cutting or stabbing properties from it.
Handle is made of mammoth tusk with brass fasteners. A design feature is the very fine-drawn scrimshaw portrait of the Formula 1 pilot Michael Schumacher on the both sides. For the production of this author’s knife, the masters need 36 days.
Luxury handmade wooden box and two pairs of demonstrative gloves in the set will help you keep the knife in good condition for a long time.
