Fällkniven A1pro10 (Without plastic box, sharpener and only 10 year warranty)

This edition of the F1pro is sold without the waterproof box and DC4 sharpener, and with only a 10 year warranty instead of lifetime warranty. The option includes only the knife and the Zytel sheath. There are survival knives, and there are survival knives for the professional survival. Our models F1, S1 and A1 have provided exceptional service for more than twenty years and due to their outstanding quality and durability will continue to do so for many years to come. Nevertheless our desire to strive for continual improvement has led us to develop the new Pro Series which takes the concept of the survival knife to unimaginable heights of quality. We began developing these impressive new knives in 2010 and five years later, we’re able to offer three survival knives which set the benchmark for survival knife manufacture the world over – the Pro series. To put it simply a knife is a blade and a handle. But if this vital tool is to remain strong and stay sharp you have to add fairly decent materials. If you then claim to call a knife “professional” you take on a responsibility to the user to raise the bar above what is normal. So it is with the Pro series. New and improved Pro series specification Pro series of F1, S1 and A1 differs from its predecessors in the following important details: 1. The laminated VG10 steel is replaced with a laminate cobalt steel (lam. CoS) which, amongst other things, ensures a durable edge and improved edge retention. 2. The blades are consistently thicker causing an increased torsional rigidity – they will withstand even greater external forces than before. 3. The tapered tang is wider and thicker and thus significantly stronger. 4. The crossguard is made of stainless steel and permanently mounted to the tang. 5. The convex edge has been refined to improve the cutting properties. 6. The zytel sheaths are redesigned meaning they are more durable and are better suited to the Molle attachment system. 7. The knives are supplied with our most valued combination whetstone, the DC4. It offers both a diamond whetstone and a ceramic stone for field sharpening. 8. The knives are packed in shock-resistant, waterproof boxes that can be used for storage of smart phones, GPS, documents, survival gear and much more. Understandably these knives fall into a higher price category. However, considering the unparalleled quality they are by no means over priced. A professional survival knife should be able to be relied upon in the all-weather and we really mean all weather. It should also be pleasant, safe and comfortable to handle whether it’s fine or rough work, summer heat or winter cold. We have considered everything in the design of this quite superb knife and we, therefore, offer a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship.

Description S1pro – Laminated CoS steel There are basic survival knives, and there are survival knives for the professional. Our original models of the F1, S1 and A1 have provided exceptional service for more than 20 years. And due to their outstanding quality and durability they will continue to perform for many more years. Nevertheless our drive to continually improve our knives has led us to develop the new Pro Series. The Pro Series are survival knives of near-unimaginable quality, durability and performance. We began developing the Pro Series knives back in 2010 and finally five years later, we could offer three amazing Pro Series survival knives that are the new world standard for survival knife performance and manufacturing. Simply put, a knife is a blade and a handle. To remain strong and stay sharp the knife must be made of high quality materials. But if the claim is made that a knife is “professional” then the knife and its builder has a responsibility to the user to raise the bar far above what is common. The Pro Series truly is professional. Compared to their predecessors, the Pro series of F1, S1 and A1 differs in the following important areas: The original laminated VG10 steel is upgraded to a laminate cobalt steel (lam. CoS) blade that ensures a durable edge and improved edge retention. The blades are thicker increasing the torsional rigidity so the knives will withstand even greater external forces. The full-length tapered tang is wider and thicker and therefore significantly stronger. The crossguard is now made of stainless steel and permanently welded to the tang. The convex blade edge has been refined to improve its cutting properties. The zytel sheaths are redesigned, more durable, and better suited for the Molle attachment system. Understandably these knives fall into a higher price category. However, considering the unparalleled quality they are by no means over priced. A professional survival knife must perform in all weather with no exceptions. The professional survival knife must be comfortable and safe to handle for both fine and rough work in summer heat and winter cold. We at Fallkniven have considered every design aspect of these superb professional survival knifes.

Das Fällkniven S1PRO "Premium Edition" Outdoormesser mit Zytelscheide für Rechtshänder hat eine Klingenlänge von 130 mm und eine Klingenstärke von 6 mm. Die Gesamtlänge beträgt 247 mm bei einem Gewicht von ca. 250 g. Die Klinge aus lam.COS Stahl mit einer Härte von 60 HRC ist konvex (ballig) geschliffen. In dieser Premium Edition erfolgt die Lieferung inkl. eines schlagfesten, wasserresistentem Kunststoffkoffer, der Zytelscheide für Rechtshänder und den Fällkniven Diamant/Keramik Schärfstein DC4. Die Premium Edition hat zusätzlich eine "lifetime warranty". Wer das Fällkniven S1PRO ohne diese Bonus Produkte wünscht kann sich für die Alternative "Fällkniven S1PRO Edition10" entscheiden (hier gehts zum Artikel). Bei der neue PRO-Version wurde das bisherige Fällkniven S1 nochmals verbessert und mit einem neuen Klingenstahl und einem Parierstück am Griff versehen. Die Klinge des Fällkniven S1 Pro besteht nun aus laminiertem Cobaltstahl (lam.CoS =C 1.1%. Cr. 16%. W 0.3%. Mo 1.5%. V 0.3%. Co 2.5% umlagert von zwei 420J2 Außenlagen). Die Klingenstärke wurde von 5 mm auf 6 mm erhöht. Laut Aussage von Fällkniven und dem britischen CATRA Test Laboratories hat die Klinge nun eine Härte von 60 HRC, ist sehr schnitthaltig und neigte auch im harten Praxistest nicht zu Klingenausbrüchen. Zwischen dem bekannten Griff aus Thermorun und der Klinge wurde nun ein Parierstück eingebracht, welches nicht nur optische Reize setzt, sondern auch das Hineinrutschen in die Klinge verhindern soll. Bei der Fällkniven S1PRO "Premium Edition" hat sich auch der Lieferumfang erhöht. Das Messer wird in speziell für die Pro Serie entwickelten, schlagfesten und wasserresistenten Kunststoffkoffern, sowie dem Fällkniven DC4 Diamant/Keramik-Schärfstein ausgeliefert. Das ultimative Wildniss-Messer Fällkniven S1pro Fällkniven selber schreibt über das Messer: "Es gibt Survival Messer und es gibt professionelle Survival Messer. Die Modelle F1, S1 und A1 haben bisher aufgrund ihrer hervorragenden Qualität erstklassige Dienste geleistet. Trotz dieses großen Erfolgs strebt Fällkniven nach einer Verbesserung und begann im Jahre 2010 mit der Entwicklung einer verbesserten Version. Fünf Jahre später konnte die Entwicklung erfolgreich abgeschlossen werden. Das Ergebnis hiervon ist die Pro Serie, welche den Standard für alle Hersteller von Survival Messer deutlich nach oben schraubt. Die Pro Serie ist nun für das F1, das S1 und das A1 erhältlich."
