Fallkniven R2 Scout Knife R2z

Fallkniven R2 Scout Fixed Blade Knife (R2z)

The Fallkniven R2 Scout Knife is their most advanced fixed blade knife for active outdoor use. It is an all-round knife of the highest quality. It is strong without being heavy and bulky and you get a good, secure grip thanks to Fallknivens' classic anatomically well-designed handle. The knife sheath has a 2 way locking system, partly a spring assisted key lock that generally holds the knife in the sheath, and partly a shackle lock that you fold down to 100% securely lock the knife in place. The blade material of the Fallkniven Scout R2z Knife is Swedish powder steel (Elmax) that is carefully hardened, cooled to minus 190°C and then tempered for 2 hours to a hardness of HRC 61/62. It gives a tough and at the same time hard steel that stays sharp for a long time without being brittle.

This knife is designed with a slightly smaller grip without sacrificing quality. The convex ground edge is wood sharp and keeps its sharpness very well. When the edge has lost its sharpness or if you have received a dent in the edge, use a fine, flat diamond whetstone like DC4 to restore the edge to its original appearance. 

The Scout R2z knife is designed with having a strong blade back to give the knife the strength to withstand stress. The blade tang (the part of the blade that goes inside the handle) is also wide and strong and is visible at the handle end. The tip of the blade is reinforced in order to prevent it from breaking. The Fallkniven R2 Scout Knife is a great bushcraft survival and EDC knife all-round.
