The Lynx Lumberjack is a fixed blade knife for lighter to medium jobs. The handle is made of stained birch and its surface is slightly textured, which allows a firm, safe grip. It has a carbon steel blade for all-around use and easy sharpening when the time comes. Remember to take proper care of your carbon steel knife: always dry the blade carefully after each use and oil the blade with unsalted oil on a regular basis to prevent oxidation. This ensures your knife will be around to help you for many years to come.
