Casstrom No 10 Swedish Forest Knife Sleipner Steel Curly Birch Loaded

Casstrom No.10 Swedish Forest Knife with Curly Birch Wood and Matching Firesteel

This great new knife is built as a multipurpose knife for hunting, bushcraft and general use in the great outdoors. The blade is 10cm long and made using 3.8mm thick Austrian made Sleipner tool steel made by Uddeholm and heat treated to achieve a hardness of 58-60 HRC. The knives are ground with a shaving sharp flat Scandinavian grind and have a satin finish. This steel in combination with the grind makes these knives very strong, yet very easy to sharpen and it takes a great edge.

The handle is made from Curly Birch but also available in Classic Oak or green Canvas Micarta. There are black liners between the handle scales and steel to enhance durability over time. The wood has been treated with a traditional Scandinavian linseed oil based varnish.

The knife comes with a sturdy welted sheath made from cognac brown 3mm vegetable tanned full-grain leather. The sheath features an extra wide belt loop with firesteel loop, a fluid draining hole, a lanyard hole and a matching curly birch firesteel.
