KEY FEATURES

• Unique Curved Ergonomic Handle  Designed with a focus on comfort, this handle fits naturally in your hand, reducing fatigue and ensuring a secure grip during prolonged use. Ideal for those long days in the wilderness.
  
• Hand-Finished Natural Oak Handle  A handle of warm, natural oak not only offers a beautiful aesthetic but also provides a tactile, non-slip surface enhancing your control when working on detailed tasks.
• Superior Blade Performance  Made from rugged Sleipner carbon steel, the blade holds an edge and is easy to sharpen and strop in the field. Casström blades are all cryo-quenched too, which enhances wear-resistance and helps fulfill the true potential of the steel.
• Built to Last  The strong, full-tang construction ensures the knife provides unwavering reliability in the great outdoors. Even if a handle breaks, a full-tang knife can still be easily used. The stable Scandi grind is perfect for survival and bushcraft tasks such as carving or splitting wood by batoning.
• Sturdy Leather Sheath  Your knife comes with a vegetable-tanned, high-quality European leather sheath, designed to protect the blade and offer convenient carrying.
• Guaranteed Quality  Backed by our usual 25-year warranty and made entirely in Europe, the No.10 SFK is a testament to superior craftmanship you can rely on.
• Firesteel Option  For those who need the ultimate survival tool, this option includes our fantastic 12,000+ strike Auermetall Fire Steel (with matching handle of oak), and a leather sheath with integral fire steel loop. Firelighting has never been this easy!
