Casstrom Lars Fält Lock Back Folding Knife
The Lars Fält Lock Back is a folding knife by Casstrom and is a robust, pocket companion to the Lars Fält Bushcraft knife.
Whilst working with indigenous peoples in different parts of the world, Lars has developed a profound respect for their knowledge and view of life. Many of these contacts have followed him throughout his life, and provided an important source of knowledge and inspiration for the development and adaptation of survival techniques.
The design and specification was developed in collaboration with Lars Falt, the renowned Swedish survival expert.
The sturdy 7.5cm long, c.3mm thick blade in N690 stainless steel (hardness 59 HRC) will accomplish most tasks, being especially useful around camp. The Lars Fält Lock Back will provide a competent and reliable knife when out in the field.
The full Scandi grind gives versatility and is easily maintained, while the handle of carefully selected curly birch gives the knife a traditional Scandinavian look and feel.
About the steel:
N690 is a cobalt-enriched steel from Austria, N690 shares some properties with other cobalt-enriched steels, e.g. ATS-55 and VG-10. The cobalt increases the wear resistance of the blade thanks to the even crystal structure.
