Fallkniven F1x Elmax Fixed Blade Reviews

Read Heinnie Haynes Reviews

Fallkniven F1x with the Swedish quality steel Elmax. Elmax is a high-alloy powder steel with high corrosion resistance and high wear resistance.
 
Your X-knife is the strongest, sharpest and safest stainless steel knife in production. If your life is in danger, you can always rely on your X-knife. It is designed to withstand all the stresses applied by the human hand, which means that it is virtually indestructible.
 
The basis of the X-knife’s strength lies in the well-thought-out construction in which break zones have been eliminated. Together with the hand-shaped convex edge, the X-knife is a concept that beats everything else in the world in terms of safety and comfort.
 
Fallkniven have put a lot of energy into designing a safe knife sheath, which is actually where the knife will spend most of its time. The sheath has both a transport lock (the folding bracket with a strap) and a working safety detail that allows the knife to be in place until you decide to use it. The transport lock will therefore allow the knife to be fastened tip-up or tip-down on the body or on your equipment without any risk.

There is everything to like about the F1x in Elmax. Sharp is a word blunted by overuse in HH reviews - this is right up there with the best - would have shaved my chin out of the box, went through tissue like a scalpel - incredible for a 5mm chunk. Handle - thin, rough scales, finger guard a bit sharp - I'll wear a glove. Sheath, not pretty but works and is 100% secure. HH - can you get some G10 liners in for the X-series ? You can put me down for a set in orange or red for this one.

Great service from HH, a great knife but I have not used it yet, will need to mod the handle in the future as it's a bit thin for me.

Wow what a great knife. So sharp out of the box and looks and like great quality. Really comfortable in the hand and didn't give me any hot spots on my hand after some constant wood cutting and batoning for nearly an hour. Held the edge well and with a quick stropping it had the perfect again. Will be getting the F1 pro for sure, and the S1 and A1. Definitely worth getting and I recommend it.

Hard use! This knife is for me in the goldilocks zone of being not too big and not too small. But it can be used hard when you want. Highly recommended.

Used it ,abused it ,stropped it back to shaving sharp. Handle scales too thin for me but if you want the scabbard to fit then live with it. Still recommend it.

Wanted one of these for a long time, ever since I first saw it on the Dutch Bushcraft knives YouTube channel(great knife channel to watch). The two guys on this channel really give the knives they test a beating and this F1x really impressed me. The convex Elmax blade was crazy sharp out of the box, comfy handle, the sheath locks the knife in tight. Great for any camping wood cutting tasks, the blade is a tank. Get one.
