Every part of it is made by hand, not mass produced, not machine perfect. Variations in finish, lines, and shape are normal and part of the character of a genuine handmade knife. BTK knives are my designs, handmade to my specs and hand finished in Australia with a dull working polish, built for use.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"103\" data-end=\"166\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"914\" data-end=\"931\"\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"931\" data-end=\"934\"\u003eThis knife is designed for lawful hunting, camping and bush use only.

That means it’s tough and holds a great edge, but like all high carbon steels, it needs basic maintenance. Keep it lightly oiled to prevent rust. After use — especially after hunting or being outdoors — wipe it down and give it a light spray of WD-40 or another quality oil. A quick wipe with an oiled rag every now and then will keep it in good condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1441\" data-end=\"1509\"\u003eThis is a historic military-inspired design made as a working blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1511\" data-end=\"1541\"\u003eSimple.
