The **Autine Kurbads** is a stunning outdoor knife that is made by hand in Latvia. The name Kurbads comes from a hero in an ancient Latvian folk tale. The Kurbads is perfect for your next hike or camping trip, but also as a hunting knife it can handle its own. 

 The blade is made from Elmax steel, hardened up to 61-62HRC. And the heat treatment is something Autine is famous for. You can use amazing steel, but if it isn’t hardened properly the entire knife is worthless. The Autine Elmex steel retains its sharpness well. It is something you can expect from 62HRC. At the same time the blade is tough enough to not break or chip at this hardness. The corrosion resistance is also great. With a blade thickness of only 2.5 mm this knife appears to be very thin. This benefits the cutting properties. This knife simply glides through the product. And it is absolutely amazing to work with. The edge is razor-sharp. Something Autine is famous for. 

 The handle on the Autine Kurbads is made from cherry wood. A type of wood with a stunning, warm look and feel. In terms of shape the handle is relatively narrow, but high enough to provide you enough surface for your hand. The finger groove at the front of the handle ensures that your hand cannot go anywhere when you hold it. When you look at the handle from above you see the so-called *Coke bottle shape*. A wavy shape that resembles a cola bottle. Incredibly ergonomic and popular. 

 The Autine Kurbads comes in a leather sheath. It is relatively flexible and will take the shape of the knife after some time.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

Best use

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

molle_compatible

MOLLE is a mounting system that allows you to attach sheaths and other accessories to backpacks. With this specification we indicate whether a product is already MOLLE-compatible by default. [Want to learn more MOLLE](/en/ct/what-is-molle.htm)?

MOLLE-compatible

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
