Fallkniven F3z Butcher Knife Lam VG10W Steel with Zytel Sheath

This is an excellent dressing and skinning knife! The form of the blade is ideal to skin somewhat larger game and then open it before hanging. Since the edge can be made thin without losing any strength, the edge will easily part the thickest skin, which the user should perhaps bear in mind – to avoid mishaps.

F2, F3 and F4 are a new concept in high quality knives intended for butchering animals and processing fish. They are based on the well shaped, secure F handle, and for it we have developed three blade shapes, each adapted to its special purpose. Unlike many other manufacturers we persist in using really good edging steel and even if it leads to products that are 5 or 10 times more expensive, we feel that the concept is right. A cheap dressing knife is characterised by poor edge retention, leading to it fairly soon being honed to destruction, while a knife from us can be used for decades. Not only does this lead to good overall economy, but also offers satisfaction and safety at work. Naturally, it need not be put away after the hunting, but can also serve its purpose in the kitchen. The knives are supplied with a zytel edge protector. The best, simplest and quickest way to sharpen them is with a diamond whetstone or diamond sharpening steel: see our products DC4 and D12.

New for 2023 – Fallkniven’s popular butcher/fishing knives F2 and F3 get an upgrade in the form of a steel change to VG10W – the steel contains more tungsten than standard VG10, which results in a slightly better strength and edge retention.
