Its satin-ground blade uses the renowned \u003cstrong\u003eBöhler N690Co\u003c\/strong\u003e stainless steel, subjected to a heat treatment that gives it a professional hardness of 60\/61 HRc. This guarantees long-lasting and continuous cuts on skin and meat without constant sharpening, as well as great resistance to oxidation. Due to its high hardness, to restore its original bite at camp, we suggest using diamond plates or going to a professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction and resistance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt for performance, the Galatea's structure is supported by a solid brass bolster. With a blade thickness of 2.7 mm and a very balanced weight of only 135 grams, it is extremely agile without losing firmness. It is a tremendously capable piece for general cutting and dressing tasks, but always with responsibility: like all folding knives, it is not designed for extreme prying on bones or heavy joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHandle and control in real conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold mornings and environmental humidity demand a grip that won't betray you.
