Model Firebird F804-FS is a typical kukri. Its blade is curved and expands towards the tip. Thanks to this form, it is much easier to perform chopping actions. Moreover, when you first take this machete in your hands, you feel like waving it at all or throwing it at all.
For the manufacture of the blade used high carbon steel grade 5Cr14, hardened to a level of 54 HRC. This material is resistant to shock loads, however, without proper care, it can be affected by corrosion and with intensive use. But, in the case of the Firebird F804-FS model, its blade has a black protective coating that prevents the formation of corrosion and does not allow the surface of the blade to blink in the sun or from other light sources. And in the kit, there is a pretty good sharpener, which allows you to quickly restore the machete sharpness, even with a strong "ground" of the cutting edge.
The handle of the Firebird F804-FS model is massive and with a monolithic construction. It is entirely made of rubberized plastic and does not assemble, which has a positive effect on the strength of the machete as a whole, and ease of use. In addition, rubberized plastic, although a little, but absorbs shocks, reducing the load on the user's hand.
Due to the deep grooves under the fingers and the textured surface, the Firebird F804-FS machete does not slip out of hands even when working in gloves or when wet. In the end part of the handle, there is a hole under the lanyard. It is rather wide and a safety lanyard is easily passed through.
