46,52 €Bestech Strelit Orange G10, Satin/Stonewashed 14C28N by Ostap Hel – a compact Hawkbill folding knife with an orange handle
The Bestech Strelit Orange G10, Satin/Stonewashed 14C28N folding knife by Ostap Hel (BG52C-1) is a compact design by Ostap Hel that combines a 14C28N steel blade with a vibrant orange G10 handle. The unusual arrangement of the handle and blade, along with the curved Hawkbill profile, give the Strelit a distinctive character and clearly set it apart from classic folding knives.
The 55.50 mm blade features a flat grind and a smooth edge. Satin-finished surfaces paired with stonewashed ones create a two-tone finish, while the flipper and ceramic bearings ensure comfortable manual opening.
Sandvik 14C28N and a flat grind
The blade is made of 14C28N steel from Sandvik. This alloy offers a good balance of corrosion resistance, toughness, and sharpenability, making it well-suited for compact utility knives. The flat grind ensures a versatile edge geometry.
Hawkbill and Satin/Stonewashed
The curved Hawkbill profile helps keep the material within the cutting zone, which distinguishes it from classic blades with a straighter edge line. Satin-finished surfaces combined with a stonewashed finish emphasize the blade’s unusual shape and visually distinguish its individual planes.
Orange G10, Liner Lock, and Compact Design
The orange G10 handle increases the knife’s visibility and creates a strong contrast with the blade. The Liner Lock secures the blade when open, and ceramic bearings ensure smooth operation of the mechanism when using the flipper.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I care for 14C28N steel?
After use, it’s a good idea to clean the blade and dry it thoroughly. For long-term storage, you can apply a thin layer of knife preservative.
How do I sharpen a Hawkbill profile?
The curved edge works best with narrow ceramic rods, conical sharpeners, or systems that allow the abrasive material to follow the curve of the blade. It is important to maintain a consistent angle along the entire length of the edge.
How does the Liner Lock work?
When fully opened, the spring-loaded inlay moves behind the blade base and holds it in the open position. Pushing the liner back allows you to close the blade safely.
How do I clean the orange G10 handle?
The handle can be cleaned with a soft brush or a damp cloth and mild detergent. After removing dirt, thoroughly dry the G10 and the area around the mechanism.
How to maintain ceramic bearings?
It’s a good idea to regularly clean dust and debris from around the pivot. If necessary, you can apply a small amount of a light lubricant designed for folding knife mechanisms.
