1.4034 - belongs to the group of stainless martensitic steels. The symbols used for the same steel, but in other standards, are 4H13 steel (PN standard), 420 steel (AISI) and X46Cr13 steel (according to DIN standard). The main property of steel 1.4034 is resistance to atmospheric corrosion, natural waters that do not contain salts, dilute and cold salt solutions, liquid fuels, alcohols, parts of cold organic and inorganic acids, as well as corrosion of some food products, but only those that do not have salt and other preservatives in their composition. This steel also has very good abrasion resistance and very good parameters for determining hardness.

Regular maintenance of 1.4034 stainless steel prevents the formation of deposits and maintains its luster. It also facilitates the removal of spots and tarnishes. Cleaning should be done before the appearance of a visible layer of dirt or fingerprints, so the danger of permanent discoloration of the steel surface will be minimized. For cleaning, do not use agents that contain: chlorine, salt, acids and bleach.

Blade - serrated blade of Serrated type is derived with Full Flat grind. The saw blade consists of alternating one large and three small teeth, the so-called three-step. This pattern increases the length of the cutting edge by up to 24% compared to a straight blade. It is opened by means of a milled notch in the wedge (Nail Nick)

Blades - additional features:

• main blade, length 75 mm, locking mechanism
• other: cap opener, marspikiel

Handle - in an easy-to-find bright yellow color. Covered with non-slip textured facings with rubber-like properties, made of thermoplastic elastomer, also known as TPE thermoplastic rubber (guarantees a firm grip in an aquatic environment), combined with PP polymer. The ergonomic shape of the facings prevents the hand from slipping while working. In the rear part of the blade lock lever.
