Ostap Hel Knives - Innovation and Entrepreneurship Showcase. Ostap Hel is a prominent and respected name in the Polish and international knife-making scene. His dual role as an independent creator and a collaborator with top knife brands has led to a rich portfolio of knife designs and EDC tools. His creations are marked by a sense of balance and symmetry, appealing to those with an eye for detail. The Dundee's design pays homage to the iconic Crocodile Dundee film and its famous bowie blade.
D2 Steel - D2 steel is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel known for its corrosion resistance, surpassing that of many other high-carbon steels. Often hailed as the most rust-resistant among susceptible steels, D2's blend of strength, edge retention, and sharpenability makes it a preferred choice. It is wear-resistant yet remains straightforward to sharpen, earning the favor of many users.
Drop Point Blade - The Dundee features a Drop-Point blade profile with an extended, user-friendly cutting edge. The 3.0 mm thick blade, combined with a high flat grind, offers optimal cutting performance. The blade's opening is enhanced by ceramic ball bearings and a classic flipper that doubles as a safety guard. Jimping along the blade spine provides thumb support, while a double-sided fuller adds structural integrity. A robust liner lock mechanism ensures safe operation by preventing unintended folding.
G10 Handle - The Dundee's handle is constructed from G10 composite material, blending fiberglass with synthetic resin and color pigment for durability. The textured handle scales offer a secure hold, even in damp conditions, and chamfered edges ensure comfort during use. Finger grooves improve handling stability, while the open-backed design with steel spacer tubes lightens the knife's weight and simplifies maintenance. A stainless steel clip enables tip-up carry, positioning the knife in the pocket with the blade tip upward.
