Product detailed description
Modern Tanto Knife Dellinger Memento Mori Red
The modern tactical knife Dellinger Memento Mori is an evolution of the traditional Japanese tanto knife, modified and adapted for the needs of demanding outdoor and tactical challenges. Advanced materials, design, and technology are utilized to ensure the knife provides maximum performance and reliability even in extreme conditions..
The main characteristic of the Tanto Memento Mori knife is its robust construction. The blade is made of strong and durable D2 steel, designed to withstand use in demanding conditions. The blade undergoes hardening in highly precise vacuum furnaces (vacuum heat treatment). Both the primary, main edge, and the secondary edge on the tip of the Tanto blade are hand-sharpened and, with a hardness of 59-60 HRC, the knife achieves extraordinary, even extreme sharpness. A strong blade with a robust full tang construction that runs through the entire shaped handle gives the knife exceptional properties. The knife fits perfectly in the hand and its higher weight aids in technique and cutting. The curved part of the blade is ideal for various techniques of use.

The sheath is designed to hold the knife securely and firmly in place without causing damage. Kydex material is flexible and adaptable, allowing for a precise fit to the knife and ensuring its stability.

"Memento mori" is a Latin phrase that literally means "remember death". This phrase serves as a reminder of human transience and the inevitability of death. Memento mori was a strong motto and concept in ancient Rome, but also in Christian theology, philosophy, and art. The idea of memento mori urges us to realize that life is short and that death is inevitable. It is meant to remind us to cherish the time we have and to live it fully and in accordance with our values. Memento mori also challenges us to reflect on the meaning of life and the importance of things that are truly essential.

Knife care rules
|
Sharpening a hunting knife
For sharpening the knife, we recommend using diamond and water sharpening stones. If you are not 100% sure of your skills and dexterity, contact us. Your knives will be sharpened individually according to your wishes. We also regularly organize knife sharpening courses. Alternatively, find a professional sharpener in your area. Damage caused by unprofessional sharpening is irreversible.

Cleaning the hunting knife:
Particles adhering to the blade surface from aggressive substances may start to corrode and create spots on the knife surface that look like rust. However, the knife blade does not rust, but rather the adhering particles do. For removal, baking soda is commonly used, which, after moistening, creates a "paste" along with an old cork stopper.
