Terava Skrama 240 . Carbon Steel Camping Knife. Made frm Finland

RM 190.46

The Skrama is a versatile heavy-duty bush knife – a tool that builds shelters, chops firewood, and even carves feather sticks! If you're taking just one knife into the bush, get a big Skrama

Skrama – as in Scramasax or Seax, a big single-edged knife popular in the early Middle Ages Europe.

Much like the Scandinavian Leuku, Skrama doubles up as a tool and defensive implement. A fine name is always nice and the best ones are those with some history behind them – our 21st-century Skrama would surely meet the demands of any Saxon man from "ye good olde days".

80CrV2 carbon steel and heat treatment

All Terävä carbon steel knives are made from 80CrV2. The "thing" is that this is really nothing fancy or special, just very good tool steel which can take a beating and offers good edge retention. 80CrV2 has over the decades earned a reputation as solid and reliable steel, especially for our purposes.

The heat treatment we use leaves the surface of the steel softer (approx. 52 HRC) than the inside (59 HRC). This functions a lot like fancy differential heat treatments giving the blade added strength. The surface is very resistant against any microscopic fractures or other blemishes, this results in virtually zero problems caused by material defects!

When the blade is ground the harder inner steel is revealed, even though the outer surface is only 52 HRC the actual edge is 59 HRC. This is also why we grind bevels onto the sides of the spine, otherwise, the spine corners would not be hard enough to strike sparks from Ferro rods!

Carbon steel requires care: if your knife gets wet in the bush, dry it the best you can. Never store the knife without drying and oiling the blade.

Rubber grip

The handle is designed for a "one-and-a-half" hand grip. The back end gives a good, solid grip for tough chopping action, giving the blows more power, as a bush knife this is what the Skrama is designed for. The upper third of the grip is shaped to give you a good feel for detailed work, such as making firestarters. This is however not a miniature model makers scalpel and not intended as one, but as any self-respecting Finnish blade, it can be used to carve a proper wooden cock, "Leirikyrpä" as it's known in Finnish military lingo. The knife is rather well balanced, so the heavy blade doesn't cause problems when whittling.
