A scaled-down version of the classic Colibri I, it carries on the Albacete knife-making tradition in a very light body that almost goes unnoticed on the belt or inside the backpack. Its discreet character makes it comfortable over long days and yet decisive when it is time to dress game, turning it into the regular backup for those who work in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knife's lines do away with ornament to keep what matters: a firm grip, a clean cut and a restrained weight that lets you spend hours on detail work without fatigue setting in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReasons to choose this model\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNimble handling:\u003c\/strong\u003e at barely 110 grams and in a very compact format, it lets you work in tight areas without your arm aching after a while of use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated safety stop:\u003c\/strong\u003e the fin-shaped guard rises from the blade itself and acts as a solid brake, so your fingers do not slip towards the edge even when moisture is involved.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting precision:\u003c\/strong\u003e the 8.5 cm blade with a drop-point profile and hollow grind fits neatly into the narrow gaps of the joints and gets the most out of the meat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarm, natural handle:\u003c\/strong\u003e the olive wood matches the temperature of your hand on cold mornings and offers a pleasant contact that a synthetic material can hardly equal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSteel and edge behaviour\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade is made from \u003cstrong\u003emolybdenum vanadium\u003c\/strong\u003e steel hardened to \u003cstrong\u003e54\/56 HRc\u003c\/strong\u003e, a combination that holds its edge well and copes easily with the technical dressing of any animal. That metallurgy also offers good protection against corrosion when it comes into contact with blood or with humidity-laden environments. Thanks to the geometry of its grind, restoring the edge out in the field is straightforward with a fine-grit stone, so it is easy to keep a sharp edge from start to finish of the task.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction and sturdiness\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts restrained size should not be mistaken for fragility. The Colibri II is a \u003cstrong\u003efull tang\u003c\/strong\u003e knife: a single sheet of steel \u003cstrong\u003e3 mm thick\u003c\/strong\u003e runs through the whole piece from the tip to the end of the handle. That continuity removes the usual weak points and gives a feeling of total solidity in the hand. That said, given its slim profile and its vocation as a field scalpel, it is best reserved for fine cutting and not used as a lever on thick bones, so as not to spoil the refined geometry of the edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHandle and real grip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControl of the cut rests with a set of \u003cstrong\u003enatural satin-finish olive wood\u003c\/strong\u003e scales. This wood is oil-treated at the factory to bring out its grain, and its natural pores help maintain traction even with hands dirty from work. \u003cstrong\u003eFlat aluminium rivets\u003c\/strong\u003e fix the wood permanently to the chassis and shape a compact \u003cstrong\u003e9.5 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e handle that fits naturally into the hand during meticulous tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSheath and carry\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor carrying, comfort and discretion come first. It includes a good-quality \u003cstrong\u003ebrown leather sheath\u003c\/strong\u003e in vegetable-tanned hide, made in Spain. Its classic vertical-carry cut lets you fix it to the belt without getting in the way or snagging in dense vegetation, while the leather holds the tool firmly for silent carry and a well-protected blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDressing and fine butchering:\u003c\/strong\u003e it is practical for working through tendons, opening joints and tending to the delicate parts of the animal thanks to its manoeuvrable format.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall game:\u003c\/strong\u003e its size makes it ideal for preparing partridge, rabbit or hare cleanly and at a good pace.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBackup on driven hunts:\u003c\/strong\u003e the support tool that always goes with you, to prepare lunch, cut cord or tidy up the stand without any fuss.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare and maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCleaning in the field:\u003c\/strong\u003e after processing a catch, remove any residue with soap and water and dry the blade thoroughly before storing it in the sheath.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCaring for the olive wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e as it is natural wood, it is worth applying linseed oil or specific waxes from time to time to nourish the pores, prevent dryness and revive its shine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTouching up the edge:\u003c\/strong\u003e a light pass on the honing steel before each outing keeps the grind cutting like the first day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCaring for the leather:\u003c\/strong\u003e do not dry the sheath next to radiators or near an open flame, and apply neatsfoot grease occasionally so the hide stays supple and resistant to moisture.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eCudeman Colibri II (135-L)\u003c\/strong\u003e makes it clear that compact dimensions are no obstacle to effectiveness in the field.
