Mikov Hunter Safari with Saw 230-BD-2/K
Code: 230-BD-2/KRelated products
Product detailed description
Blade made of Austrian N690 stainless steel with a hardness of 57–59 HRC offers good edge retention, wear resistance, and reliable protection against corrosion. This steel contains chromium, molybdenum, and cobalt, which contribute to its mechanical properties and stability of the cutting edge. With proper sharpening, it provides an efficient cut and handles regular use in hunting practice well. The more massive profile of the blade supports stability during cutting and other more demanding tasks. The matte black CERAKOTE coating reduces unwanted reflections, increases surface protection, and gives the knife a discreet appearance suitable for hunting and staying in the forest.
An interesting construction feature is the integrated saw, which expands the possibilities of the knife's use when working with bones and other harder materials. The serrated edge allows cutting where a classic smooth blade might not be the most suitable. The combination of a cutting blade and a saw in one tool reduces the need to carry additional equipment and is appreciated especially by hunters when processing game in the field. The combination of a smooth edge and a saw gives the knife wider practical use while maintaining a compact folding construction.
Scales made of stabilized thuja give the knife a unique appearance thanks to the distinct pattern of natural wood. Stabilization consists of impregnating the wood with resin, which penetrates into its structure and improves dimensional stability and resistance to moisture. The material therefore reacts less to changes in the surrounding environment than ordinary untreated wood and, with proper care, retains its appearance in the long term. Stabilized thuja combines the natural beauty of wood with properties suitable for an everyday hunting knife.
HUNTER from the SAFARI series will appeal to hunters, hunters, and enthusiasts of high-quality folding knives who are looking for a combination of functionality, durable materials, and a traditional look. It is delivered in a luxury wooden box, making it also suitable as a valuable gift for hunters or collectors of hunting knives. Böhler N690, CERAKOTE surface finish, and stabilized thuja create a striking combination of technical properties and natural design.

The tradition of knife-making associated with the Mikov brand has its roots in Mikulášovice in northern Bohemia, which was known as Nixdorf in the 18th century. It was here that a systematic approach to the production of knives and cutlery began to take shape, based on manual dexterity, local materials, and gradual technical improvement. The town's location in the very north of Bohemia contributed to strong links with German knife-making regions, from which technology, ideas, and business contacts flowed.
The region was long inhabited by itinerant knife makers who worked in small workshops and produced blades hardened in simple furnaces, often directly in their homes. Their skills caught the attention of merchant Ignaz Rösler, who managed to concentrate the scattered craft into the first organized factory production. This laid the foundation for industrial steel processing in the region, where emphasis was placed on repeatable quality, precise grinding, and functional blade shaping.
The originally relatively small operation grew rapidly thanks to high demand for cutlery and knives, which were renowned for their reliability and durability. The expansion of production led to the specialization of individual work steps, with separate departments for hardening, grinding, and assembly, which increased productivity and the technical level of the final products. The success of the first factory motivated other residents of the region to establish related workshops, grinding shops, and forging operations, transforming Mikulášovice into a continuous center of knife production.
Over time, a unique ecosystem of crafts emerged, where experience was passed down from generation to generation and the technical details of production were constantly refined. Typical Mikulášovice production was based on high-quality carbon steel, careful heat treatment, and an emphasis on ergonomics. It was this combination of tradition, technical discipline, and industrial thinking that led to the town being nicknamed the Czech Solingen. This legacy continues to shape the perception of the Mikov brand as a symbol of Czech knife-making, where historical experience blends with modern production and practical use.
