Nordic Knife Design Forester 100 Blade, Scandi Grind, Stainless Steel N690

NKD is the knife brand of Dennis Holmbacka from Finland, mixing old Finnish knife traditions with new advancements in steel and design. The result is a unique combination of quality blades made in proven steels, often mixing traditional blade shapes and grinds with modern tang construction, carry options and weight distribution. 

NKD Forester specificly designed for bushcrafting and hunting. This is a version in Stainless N690 from Austrian maker Bohler Uddeholm. Complex heat treatment and great edge retention while easy to sharpen and polish.

 

Martensitic chromium steel with cobalt, molybdenum and vanadium additions. For tools and components which can be hardened to very high hardness levels. By many compared to VG10 or "Austrian VG10" as a stainless with similar composition and edge retention, ease of polish and sharpening. Used by many commercial folding knife companies such as Spyderco and EnZo, it is considered by many to be easier to sharpen razor sharp than M390 while still having good edge retention. Corrosion resistance is high, with over 17% Chromium.
