The **Fällkniven F1 Pro Elmax** is the improved version of the well-known Fällkniven F1: the pilot knife of the Swedish air force. This has been a very popular knife among outdoor enthusiasts for many years. The convex edge is very sharp as well as very strong. Cutting wood and many other tasks are a piece of cake. The Fällkniven F1 Pro is an all-round fixed knife that can withstand the most extreme circumstances. The thermorun handle offers great grip, even with wet hands. The tang of the blade runs all the way to the pommel, for optimal strength.
Although many think of the Fällkniven F1 as the ultimate survival knife, Fällkniven felt there was still some room for improvement. That’s why this Fällkniven F1 Pro was developed.
## Fällkniven Pro Elmax series differences
The Fällkniven Pro series is the long-awaited successor to the highly popular regular F1, A1 and S1. The blade of this version of the F1 Pro is made from Elmax steel. This stainless steel has even better sharpness retention and won’t chip easily. The entire blade is also thicker, which makes for an even stronger knife. This isn’t just the case for the visible (cutting) part of the blade, the tang that runs into the handle is also larger and thicker.
The thermorun finger guard has been replaced by a steel finger guard, for more solidity and improved balance. But that’s still not all – the convex grind of the blade has also been improved.
Compared to the “old” knives, the Zytel sheath has also been upgraded. It’s been made even more durable and easier to use with the MOLLE system.
