The design of this beautiful hunting knife follows the basic principles of Swedish minimalism — that the design should be simple, neat and functional. To this minimalist foundation, Fallkniven utilized their laminated cobalt steel, which is known for its ability to take and keep an excellent edge. The handles are made from desert ironwood, an extremely hard and compact wood, so dense that it does not float in water. It can be treated with any kind of furniture polish, gun stock oil or other liquids containing thinner and linseed oil. Should the knife happen to get dull, use Fallkniven's DC4 combination whetstones. A black, low-hanging leather sheath houses the knife when not in use.
