Product Use

The Fällkniven A1 is designed for survival, fieldwork, and all-around outdoor applications. The convex edge ensures superb cutting efficiency and resilience under heavy loads such as wood splitting or batoning. Thanks to the laminated VG7 core—a tungsten-rich evolution of VG10—the A1 offers excellent edge stability and toughness. The full tang extends through the handle, allowing striking or hammering on the exposed pommel without damage. Its Kraton handle provides a secure, comfortable grip even in extreme temperatures. Users can choose between a Zytel or leather sheath, both designed for easy carry, durability, and fast deployment.

Specifications

Steel Information – Laminated VG7 (VGWolf)

The new VG7 steel features higher tungsten content for increased wear resistance and edge retention. Its laminated structure (420J2 – VG7 – 420J2) combines a hard, high-performance cutting core with tough, corrosion-resistant outer layers. This design maximizes strength and durability while maintaining a fine edge.

Why Laminated VG7?

VG7 (VGWolf) is an upgraded powder metallurgy stainless steel combining excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The addition of tungsten (W) refines the grain structure and boosts cutting longevity. In Fällkniven’s laminated configuration, it provides unmatched durability and stability during extreme outdoor use — from chopping wood to precision cutting.
