Kizlyar Nord-M Fixed Blade Knife
The Item:
Here is a little knife for those of you, who are looking for a very small fixed blade blade knife, which can still take on some serious work when thrown its way. The Nord-M is traditionally used by sheep and goat farmers in the Southern Russian and Caucus countries. The blade is only 8cm (3 inches) long, but the 3.5mm spine allows for some serious cutting. The tang feeds almost all the way through the walnut handle and is fixed into place with the lanyard rivet and heavy duty industrial cement.
The steel used in the blade is the French Z60 high carbon type, hardened to 56-58 HRC for maximum efficiency and ease of sharpening process. Like all of our Kizlyar knives, this model also comes with a custom fitted leather sheath.
The Brand: |
Dagestan is a southern Russian province with a long and decorated history of warfare and weapon craft. It has a prestigious weapon manufacturing history that dates back to the 14th century. Some areas were dedicated to the production of swords and daggers (sashka and kinjhal) while others focused on firearms and the decoration of both previous types, but all would bear characteristics unique to Dagestan.
Presently, the firm of IE Kizlyar Ltd. has the responsibility of upholding the traditions and crafts of those by-gone days by continuing the ancient trade of weapon manufacturing, whether its the production of traditional Cossack sashka (sabre), kinjhal (dagger) or finely crafted hunting and decoration knives forged in Damascus steel, adorned with precious stones and metals.In 1992, IE Kizlyar Ltd. (previously known as «Energoremont») produced it’s first run of knives for special orders. Upon completion, the knives were of such high quality that many more orders were soon to follow, and thus the excellent reputation of Kizlyar Knives was forged. April 1995 was to be a milestone in the companies history, being the first company in Dagestan to receive a licence for permission to manufacture hunting and military knives. Under Russian law, these items are classed as «cold weapons» and therefore, authorisation is required to legitimately produce them. This brought about the conception of the first, highly popular knife models - Scorpion, Taiga and Berkut. These found favour almost immediately with Special Forces and Police due to their aggressive design, nature and ultimate reliability.
The success of this venture brought about a wave of popularity, inundating the company with orders for more products, prompting a second company to be created in order to cope with ever growing demand. That being Kizlyar Knives.This joint company was named in honour of the town where it is currently situated, Kizlyar, Dagestan. In keeping with tradition and authenticity, local craftsmen, armourers, jewelers and other masters in their craft, all with skills inherited from their family trades were invited to join the company in its success. Re-affirming the companies success is the combination of centuries old traditions coupled with the application of modern manufacturing technology to produce authentic, high quality knives with supreme fit, finish and performance. |
