- F1 Wolf - Air Force slida (F1eaf)
We are pleased to present yet another new version of our bestseller F1, now with a blade in the new special steel Lam. VGWolf (VG7). It differs from other stainless special steels by its unusually high content of tungsten (1.25%) and it leads to a knife that keeps the sharpness better than most and is a little stronger. The first 1000 pcs will be marked ”Test Series”. At the same time, we add the newly developed X-sheath to the new F1Wolf model, a smart, secure plastic sheath with a two way locking mechanism and without a strap around the handle. The old plastic sheath will be sold as an extra accessory until the stock runs out.
The Fallkniven F1 is the official survival knife Swedish Air Force pilots since 1995. A new world standard was set with the F1 through attention to important details including technical design, ergonomics and economy. The Fallkniven F1 surpasses international standards for strength, personal security capabilities, and value for money.
The Fallkniven F1 represents a new philosophy with respect to knives for survival use. The F1 successfully combines the experience of generations of knife manufacturing with the most modern technology and forging.
The well thought-out design and incredibly tough laminated steel are only two of the many details making the handy-sized Fallkniven F1 a knife you can always you can rely on even with your life. The F1 is well proportioned and tremendously versatile. The safe, comfortable grip along with its hard and tough laminated steel blade makes the F1 knife incredibly useful for all types of daily work and demanding tasks.
Info about the sheat:
Swedish Air Force Zytel Sheath
It is no secret that the Swedish Air Force since 1995 uses Model F1 as its official survival knife but, what many do not know is how the sheath looks and where the knife is kept. For the first time ever (Dec. 2018) we can therefore show pictures on this! The knife is stored in a specially made plastic sheath in a small leg pocket on the right thigh or just where you have the best access to the knife in a crowded position. There the sheath is held in place by a push button and, as you pull down the zipper, you can grab the handle and pull the knife out of the plastic lining.
Note that in this embodiment, the knife/sheath cannot be applied to a waist belt, instead it works very well to put the knife in a leg pocket, not so common in the Nordic countries, but very common in central European countries. This sheath has no additional locks that our regular zytel sheath has got, but sits deep and secure through friction in the tight plastic sheath.
