A reliable knife is the key to a comfortable outdoor recreation, and sometimes survival. Every tourist, fisherman and hunter knows this very well, therefore, they appreciate not only ease of use, but also the reliability of this ancient tool. That is why the Taiga knife from the Kizlyar company is in great demand. Learn more about it will be useful to every lover of an active lifestyle.
Appearance
To begin with, it is worth noting the ergonomic handle - it provides a reliable grip - both direct and reverse.
The blade itself has a slightly elongated shape, with a slightly narrowed, predatory tip. There is a short file on the butt, which can be useful in difficult situations - you can never dump them when going to the forest.
A rather complicated pattern is etched on the blade - animals among the floral pattern with the obligatory letter “K” in the upper left corner are the “Kizlyar” sign.
The handle consists of pads that are fixed on the blade with two reliable rivets. Therefore, it is not necessary to fear that the knife will break under high pressure, as is the case with cheaper counterparts, where the shank is simply embedded in the handle and does not pass through it. Finally, there is a small hole in the top of the knife. You can insert a narrow cord or a thin carabiner here to exclude the possibility of losing an important tool when running or going through bushes, tall grass.
Materials used
The main material in the manufacture of the Kizlyar knife "Taiga" is AUS8 steel. A very successful alloy made by a Japanese company. It has a number of important characteristics. So, steel has high corrosion resistance - even leaving the knife for several days in water, the owner can be sure that no rust will appear on its surface. Moreover, it has a high degree of hardness, which makes it possible to sharpen a knife quite rarely, even with intensive work. Finally, the blade is not afraid of accidental blows - the owner can be sure that chips will not appear on the cutting edge, as is the case with knives made of too hard steel.
The handle is made of polished walnut. This wood is highly regarded by knives for its strength, durability, lightness and resistance to high humidity.
Main advantages
One of the most important advantages appreciated by both beginners and experienced knife lovers is quality sharpening. Indeed, the Taiga 2 knife boasts a precisely raised cutting edge. Even with very active work, it is not necessary to sharpen the knife often - the angle is qualitatively calibrated, so it is enough to slightly correct it with ceramic or metal musat. Of course, this is much easier than sharpening a knife with a completely damaged cutting edge. This is ensured not only by sharpening on professional equipment, but also by using high-quality steel.
Another very important factor is the affordable price. Indeed, in most stores a fairly low cost is installed on the knife - from 2 to 2.5 thousand rubles. Of course, for a good reliable knife that will not let you down in an extreme situation, this is a rather low price.
The ergonomic handle has a special shape, eliminating the possibility of slipping off the hand, both during normal operation and during stabbing.
The butt is quite thick - 2.7 millimeters. Therefore, in a difficult situation, the knife can be used as a lever. Without harming himself, he will endure chopping blows, so that it can be used not only for planing pegs, but also for chopping small branches.
Destination
When buying a knife "Taiga" from the "Kizlyar" it is worth considering that it is a melee weapon. That is, just to come to a tourist or hunting store and purchase it will not succeed. It is necessary to draw up the relevant documents in order to obtain permission for its purchase, storage and carrying. The corresponding mark should be affixed to the hunting ticket, which the owner of the knife should always carry with him, leaving the house with this knife.
However, any additional troubles associated with the execution of documents for the purchase of a knife are fully compensated by its reliability and ease of use. After all, the Taiga knife is a truly multifunctional tool that can be cut, planed, chopped, chopped, and sawed if necessary. So, if you appreciate reliable things that will not fail in an extreme situation, you definitely will not have to regret such a choice.
Scabbard features
An integral part of any knife is the sheath. After all, it depends on them how convenient it will be to carry a knife, whether there is a high risk of losing a tool in a difficult situation, whether there is an opportunity to injure yourself when working.
The developers took into account all these nuances and tried to make really high-quality, reliable and simple sheath.
As with most products of the middle price segment from Kizlyar, hunting knives Taiga are equipped with leather scabbards. They are durable, reliable, do not fade with time and are not afraid of moisture. At the same time, they look great.
They are equipped with a special button - because of it, it takes half a second more time to extract a knife, but the risk of losing it is completely eliminated. You can run, hang upside down, jump - be sure that the knife will not fall out.
