Fallkniven A1 Pro 10 Fixed Blade

There are survival knives, and there are survival knives for the professional survival. Our models F1, S1 and A1 have provided exceptional service for more than twenty years and due to their outstanding quality and durability they will continue to do so for many years to come. Nevertheless our desire to strive for continual improvement has led us to develop the new Pro Series which takes the concept of survival knives to unimaginable heights of quality. We began developing these impressive new knives in 2010 and five years later, we’re able to offer three survival knives which set the benchmark for survival knife manufacture worldwide: the Pro series.

To put it simply a knife is a blade and a handle. But if this vital tool is to remain strong and stay sharp you have to add fairly decent materials. If you then claim to call a knife “professional” you take on a responsibility to the user to raise the bar above what is normal. So it is with the Pro series.

The Pro series of F1, S1 and A1 differs from its predecessors in the following important details:

1. The laminated VG10 steel is replaced with a laminate cobalt steel (lam. CoS) which, amongst other things, ensures a durable edge and improved edge retention.

2. The blades are consistently thicker causing an increased torsional rigidity – they will withstand even greater external forces than before.

3. The tapered tang is wider and thicker and thus significantly stronger.

4. The crossguard is made of stainless steel and permanently mounted to the tang.

5. The convex edge has been refined to improve the cutting properties.

6. The zytel sheaths are redesigned meaning they are more durable and are better suited to the Molle attachment system.
