NIKOV KNIVES
Practicing bushcraft requires a decent knife. I made that model with the idea for straighter profile, narrower blade, compared to my other models, centered tip, and ergonomic handle. I made two versions of the blade – symmetrical spear point, and drop point with smooth back curve, starting from the handle, reminding for its bigger brother – Forester. The blade is a little bit shorter – 11cm of cutting edge.
Also variants with tapered tang and with non tapered tang, that protrudes from the end of the handle for striking option. Grinds are convex or scandi, that are well renowned edge types for working on wood. Average knife, one idea lighter than the Forester and Raven models. Often equipped with fire starter, mounted on the sheath.
