117,78 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Bundeswehr German Army Knife OD Green Aluminum, Satin, used by the German Army, is based on a proven design: a fixed blade, full crossguard, durable handle, and a simple form optimized for field use. The very shape of the knife suggests a tool designed for ease of use and durability, rather than visual appeal. The blade is made of 420 steel and features a spear point profile, which suits a knife intended for versatile, field use. This geometry provides a functional tip and a sufficiently wide cutting edge for everyday camp tasks. The satin finish maintains a classic, technical look and complements the traditional character of the entire design. The aluminum handle gives the model a distinctly military feel, but its role is not limited to aesthetics. The grip profile, wide crossguard, and solid pommel create a sense of stability during use. The set includes a metal sheath with a belt loop, ensuring the knife retains its practical character even when sheathed. This is an option for those who appreciate knives with a traditional military silhouette and uncomplicated functionality.
420—a martensitic stainless steel rich in 0.15% carbon and containing at least 12% chromium—offers high hardenability (in the 54–56 HRC range), strength, and excellent corrosion resistance. The high carbon content leads to the formation of chromium carbide compounds, ensuring wear resistance and edge retention after hardening. Due to its high hardness, the steel is suitable for the production of cutting tools and knife blades.
Blade—featuring a spear point profile, one of the most practical geometries for a fixed-blade knife intended for outdoor use. The slightly sloping spine line leads to a strong tip, while the more pronounced edge supports standard cutting tasks without giving the design an overly specialized character. The satin finish gives the blade a classic aesthetic, free of excessive ornamentation. Looking at the blade line, one can describe it as a utility grind with a flat geometry, designed for everyday work and easy edge maintenance.
Handle - the aluminum handle has been designed in a very classic style, without unnecessary complications in its form. The widening in the middle section improves hand positioning, while the tapering of the rear section provides a more secure grip when holding the knife firmly. A distinct crossguard defines the contact between the hand and the knife and enhances safety during use. The handle’s surface has a utilitarian, military character and harmonizes well with the model’s overall style. The set is complemented by a metal sheath with a leather belt loop, which reinforces the outdoor and military aesthetic of this design. The whole remains true to a simple premise: durability, predictability, and form following function.
