# SAE 1070
SAE 1070 is a high-carbon steel known for its strength, toughness, edge retention, and ease of sharpening. It is particularly well suited for traditionally crafted knives where reliable cutting performance and maintainability are important.
As with other high-carbon steels, the blade should be dried after use and maintained with a light coat of mineral oil when necessary to help protect the steel from moisture and oxidation.

# Full Tang Construction
The full tang construction extends the steel of the blade through the handle, providing increased strength, stability, and control during use. This construction is particularly suitable for a heavy-duty cleaver designed for demanding cutting tasks.

# Handmade Leather Sheath
Every C1016.5 includes a handmade vegetable-tanned leather sheath made by skilled Argentine artisans. Each sheath is individually crafted to provide durable blade protection and secure storage while complementing the knife’s traditional character.

# Handcrafted in Argentina
Every OriginalDogo knife is individually handcrafted rather than mass-produced. Natural variations in materials, grain, texture, coloration, and finishing are part of the character of each piece, making every knife unique.
