The "Korolyov" Knife for the 43rd Artillery Brigade: Supporting the EW Systems Fundraiser

Protecting artillery units from enemy FPV drones and reconnaissance UAVs is one of the most critical challenges on the battlefield. The "Support 43 OABr" community initiated a massive mega-fundraiser with an overall goal of 2,000,000 UAH to purchase powerful electronic warfare (EW) systems for the 43rd Artillery Brigade, named after Hetman Taras Tryasylo.

The Prosta Stal team joined this great cause by launching our own targeted fundraising pot within the project. Our goal was ambitious yet clear — to raise 10,000 UAH to contribute towards the brigade's ultimate target.

Charity Lot: The "Korolyov" Knife (Skeleton)

To incentivize donors and accelerate the fundraising process, we organized a charity raffle on our Instagram page. The entry requirement was highly accessible — every donation of 100 UAH or more granted a chance to win an exclusive "Korolyov" skeleton knife.

For this project, we prepared a special customization of the tool, which is demonstrated in detail in the image_c8b0ca.png file:

  • **Coating & Color:** Durable protective polymer coating in a tactical Tan (sand) shade.
  • **Handle:** Ergonomic and dense wrapping with high-quality paracord in a subtle black-and-brown pattern.
  • **Blade & Sheath Engraving:** Deep, artistic laser engraving featuring a mountain landscape and a memorable custom inscription applied to both sides of the blade as well as the surface of the sheath.
  • **Accessories:** Robust plastic sheath in Tan, additionally equipped with a premium metal UltiClip attachment for secure mounting on clothing or load-bearing gear.
