Therefore, we encountered the main mistake when choosing a Blue Pocket knife. Now let’s look at some examples of knives that are worth hunting. And when using the example we will understand the nuances of the appropriate options. On the basis of performance characteristics we will consider the following criteria:
- Blade length
- Blade shape
- Knife balance
- Steel
- Sheath
How to choose this parameter correctly? After all, it is convenient to kill a hunted animal with a small and graceful knife with a blade 8-12 cm long, but at the same time, it is no longer convenient to work hard with a knife and arrangement. Temporary sheds or car parks For this purpose you will need a Blue Pocket knife with a blade of 16 cm or more in length and 4 mm thick. And at the same time using the correct shape to be able to effectively stab, chop and slice large pieces of meat..a monster, but at the same time still a perfectly slicing knife.
1. Blade length
The large 10 cm long blade will not handle various tasks. Completely from making stews in the fields to killing the animals that are being hunted. Of course, if the experience of the hunter allows you to do it along the joints and between the thorns.
2. Blade shape
The shape of the blade, and its geometry, are made in the traditional Scandinavian style. This means that the Blue pocket knife has rather low chisel descents to zero, only the chisel has a descent from one side, while Scandinavian-type blades have descent from both sides.
This is done so that the blade does not go to the side when cutting, but at the same time, the knife retains just a first-class cut on wood, meat, poultry, and fish, it easily breaks them up without noticing resistance. The ease of sharpening can also be attributed to the pluses, the knife fits down on the stone, thereby easily controlling the angle. But the “walking” of the angle is a primary problem for beginners when sharpening a knife, with a similar geometry it fades into the background.
As for the shortcomings of such a geometry, I think there are none. If knives with a Scandinavian blade were created for the kitchen, then they would be simply terrible in this role. Because of their low descents, they are just like cleavers splitting vegetables. You can still cut the same carrot somehow, but you can’t cut it thinly.
But such a geometry is not for urban cuisine, but for the forest, taiga, and tundra, so it has no minuses. And filigree cut potatoes in the field, no one will.
3. Knife balance
Choose the correct balance of the blue pocket knife. Slide it slightly to the handle. This is true by category. This small size knife is not intended for cutting. Therefore, it is pointless to switch the scale to the blade. But when I shifted to the handle doubled the control of the knife during good work. It really allows you to do amazing things.
4. Steel
Of course, steel plays a role in this as well. I can’t say it’s futuristic. But a piece of steel has proven to be a huge hard worker in the mid-price segment. It is very sticky. It makes carrying extra weight, not a bad thing. This is where the blue pocket knife is stuck to the cutting edge instead of to the slice. And it is easy to sharpen, which is important in the field. We can also add that AIR is famous for the good heat treatment of this steel. But if the user is tempted by a modern “super” steel, then the 95X18 will seem too simple and ineffective for him.
5. Sheath
The sheath is dipped in leather, that is, there are no straps or buttons to secure the blade. I think this is a plus. Thanks to the clamping system, you can remove and pull the knife without removing gloves or gloves. It is very difficult to lose the knife. Installation by crimping handles with the mouth of the sheath and the free-standing casing is completely reliable – even walking with your hands.
