Casström No.10 Swedish Forest Knife, Black Micarta, Stainless Steel

The No.10 Swedish Forest Knife, was the first knife that Casström designed, and therefore holds a special place in the Casström team's hearts. It’s even more satisfying to know that it is held in the same affection by those who use it!
The Casström No.10 SFK with Black Micarta handle and full-flat grind is perfect for hunting, fishing and general use in the outdoors. A robust knife you can use to skin a moose, fillet a fish, or carve wood.
The No.10 remains popular with outdoorsmen and women. Why? Because it’s a knife you can put through its paces, and feel confident that it won’t let you down. That is everything in a knife!

This looks very nice, from my experience these are very good knives.

Full height convex option on carbon or stainless would be exceptional!

I'm a noob in bushcraft knives but it seems around 4mm thick blade with flat grind won't shine either in food prep or in woodwork. With such thickness I believe it makes sense to go for scandi version and take regular kitchen knife separately for food prep. For each task there should be a separate knife otherwise it won't do any task good enough but all the tasks averagely.

The steel is 4mm to start with but is more like 3,6 at the spine and tapers towards the tip. Since the blade grind gets gradually thinner towards the edge it doesn't feel thick. It works perfectly for food prep as well as carving wood. Where it is less effective is when it comes to splitting.

@@CasstromSweden makes sense, thank you

Hi, what is the edge angle on the flat ground no. 10 sfk?

[@CasstromSweden]

20 degrees per side

The blade is perfect but the grip is way to polished / slippery. 😔 I gave mine back because it was too easy to pull out of my hand.

[@CasstromSweden]

The stabilized versions have a better grip and when wet get an even better grip. If you want you can use fine sand paper and make it very grippy.
