It is a versatile knife that will fill a host of roles including: everyday carry, hiking, camping, fishing and small to medium bushcraft needs. It features an Oiled Curly Birch and Reindeer Antler handle that has been hand carved to provide an incredibly comfortable grip. The Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel blade provides a strong cutting platform which offers excellent edge performance and corrosion resistance. There is a section of the spine, just in front of the handle, that is 90 degree sharpened for use with the firesteel.
The blade features an internal tang that inserts well into the handle and is secured very firmly with a high grade epoxy so that it won't come loose. In fact, Karesuando offers a 10 year warranty that if the blade ever comes loose, you will get a new knife. The internal tang design is very beneficial from a weight perspective.
