Real Steel Bushcraft III Convex Ebony Mosaic 3726E Knivesandtools Exclusive bushcraft knife
The Real Steel Bushcraft III is a cool all-round bushcraft knife. The convex edge is strong and cuts perfectly. An interesting choice, especially for this price. The blade is made from D2 steel. This is a tough steel that retains its sharpness, is resistant to breakage and is also easy to sharpen. You do need to be careful with acids, salt and moisture: D2 is not completely stainless. We, however feel that this hardly outweighs the advantages of this tough type of steel.
