TheWalther BWK 1 is a large edc knife with a folding head, made of 440C stainless steel and walnut wood.
The BWK 1 model is designed for those looking for a tool with a folding design and universal use. A knife of this size will be perfect for light camp work, preparing a meal, as well as everyday carry in the city.
High-quality stainless steel
The head of the knife is made of popular 440C stainless steel hardened to 57-59 HRC. Thanks to its increased carbon content, the steel resists wear, retains its working sharpness for a long time, and sharpens relatively quickly and easily, which is important for an outdoor knife. The head is coated with a titanium protective coating, which further protects against corrosion and contrasts aesthetically with the wooden liners.
Ease of cutting
The knife has a long blade (94 mm) with a usable drop-point profile, with a derived flat grind and a distinctly rounded belly of the cutting edge. Such a combination guarantees smooth and easy cutting, high blade strength, and the versatility of the knife.
The back features a transverse milling, which allows the finger to rest while working (thumb ramp).
Folding blade
The blade is unfolded in using two hands, with the help of a nail cutout. This classic solution has been used for decades in pocket knives, among others, and allows legal carry in most EU countries.
Strong locking mechanism
When unfolded, the blade is locked with a liner-lock mechanism. When the blade is unfolded, the role of the lock is played by a spring-loaded liner that rests against the back of the blade, thus preventing it from folding. Liner-lock is prized for its simplicity, reliability and heavy-duty durability.
Wooden handle
The knife has elegant walnut wood facings with a matte finish. The handle has a contoured shape, with a pronounced finger cutout, which effectively improves the knife's grip and comfort.
The classic design is subtly broken by blue anodized liners, characteristic of the entire Blue Wood Knives series.
To carry the knife, there is a leather pouch with a wide belt loop and a belt buckle.
