Fällkniven - Bird And Trout - Zytel Sheath

The Fällkniven Bird & Trout is a compact, fixed-blade knife specifically designed for detailed cutting work in outdoor and field conditions. With a total length of 16 cm and a weight of just 79 grams, this model offers maximum control over the tip of the blade without unnecessary bulk.

The blade is 7.0 cm long and features a Drop Point profile. It is crafted from Elmax powder steel with a hardness of 61 to 62 HRC. Elmax is known for its high wear resistance, excellent edge retention, and high corrosion resistance. Fällkniven has given the blade a convex grind, which ensures a strong edge that cuts smoothly through fabric and other materials. The wide, full-tang construction guarantees a dimensionally stable and reliable foundation.

The handle is 9.0 cm long and made of Thermorun. This elastomer provides excellent shock absorption and maintains a secure grip in wet, cold, or greasy conditions. The knife comes with a hygienic, impact-resistant Zytel sheath suitable for belt carry or neck carry.

Benefits for the Target Audience

- High-quality Elmax steel: Offers exceptional tool life and requires less frequent sharpening during extended field use.
- Convex cutting edge: Reduces resistance during cutting and provides greater material strength immediately behind the cutting edge than a traditional V-groove.
- Reliable grip in wet conditions: The Thermorun handle ensures safe handling, even with wet hands or gloves.
- Minimal weight: Weighing just 79 grams, the knife is easy to carry on a belt, in a chest pocket, or around the neck.
- Low-maintenance sheath: The Zytel sheath does not absorb moisture or odors, does not rot, and is easy to rinse out.

The Bird & Trout is primarily designed for cleaning and processing fish, poultry, and small game, but is also ideal for fine woodworking and preparing meals while camping.

- Use: Use the finger notch and the rounded handle for precise, controlled cuts. Avoid heavy prying or chopping on hard bones to protect the fine edge.
- Care: After use, rinse the knife in salt water or, after contact with organic acids, rinse it with tap water and dry it thoroughly. The most effective way to maintain a convex edge is with a leather strop and a fine polishing paste.

Who is this product suitable for?

The Fällkniven Bird & Trout delivers professional-grade cutting performance in an extremely handy size.
