Description

The Fallkniven S1 Forest Knife has a straight design which gives good control. The blade is designed so that it functions in all kinds of hunting and fishing situations. The edge is specially ground to make the knife easy to whittle with, while it is extremely strong. The handle gives a sure and reliable grip, even in wet or cold hands. The steel is a rust resistant special steel (VGwolf), which goes through a comprehensive hardening process. The length of the blade makes it good for splitting wood, although the weight limits its use to light chopping duty.

The Fallkniven forest knife is available in an all-black design, with the blade coated in Teflon. In addition to reducing the risk of unwanted reflections, the Teflon coating gives further protection against corrosion. If the knife is to be used in salt water environments, we recommend the S1 Black.

The sheath is manufactured in black ox hide and is of the open, hinged type - most favoured by hunters and anglers in northern Scandinavia. The sheath is deep enough to hold the knife in place without extra fasteners. The sheath has a plastic liner to prevent the knife from cutting through the end. There is a Zytel sheath for those requiring a completely weatherproof solution

    Inconsistent blade convexing

    Posted by paul scott on 5th Mar 2012

    I was given this knife as a present. The balance is at the forefinger, the handle is comfortable and ergonomic in all weathers. The blade is a disappointment. Convexing is poor and inconsistent with big variations between knives of the same model. Fallkniven need to learn how Bark River do it!

    Great blade !

    Posted by Brian on 25th Feb 2011

    Just received today, fit and finish impeccable with a lovely weight and balance. Zytel sheath a lot better than other reviews would lead you to believe, being simple but well made and functional. Overall a fanatstic piece of kit. Sevice from HH top notch !

    Number One

    Posted by sapphire on 12th Aug 2010

    All has been already said about this outstanding all-round/survival knife. Great laminated blade steel, blade shape, balance, thickness, tip and blade strength. The only downside is it's sheath options. Either water absorbing leather or zytel which lacks military mounting options like molle strap or eyelets for tek-lock etc. Please Fallkniven if you read this make a kydex or even cordura nylon sheath sold separately which would greatly improve knife caring and handling.

    fallkniven s1

    Posted by stephen on 2nd Sep 2009

    This is the best knife I ever had. Its a really strong knife with thick blade and holds its edge very well. Nice balance and very good grip even if hands are wet or cold well worth the £££

    Top piece of kit

    Posted by mark on 3rd Dec 2008

    Length of blade is just right, balance is spot on, handle has a nice natural feel, zytel sheath very usefull, can be belt mounted, or even inverted on a pack or chest rig without fear of S1 falling out, highly recomended.

    Near perfection

    Posted by Eburon on 27th Nov 2008

    One of the best all-round/survival knives available, especially in this price range. Extemely solid, fairly easy to sharpen, perfect balance, comfortable handle. Too bad Fallkniven does not provide this knife with a kydex sheath.

    beyond the call of duty

    Posted by Mark Pywell on 7th Apr 2008

    Just spent a few interesting days with my new S1 - bit too much for woodcraft, I'll stick to my F1 for that, but if your off abroad lads this one could save you life one day! Also makes a great dive/jump knife.

    Well balanced, comfortable, easy to sharpen. 'Does exactly what it says on the tin!' - perfectly suited to the activities described.
