"Sikorsky" is a universal handmade skeleton knife
Ihor Sikorskyi is an outstanding Ukrainian aircraft designer who gained worldwide recognition thanks to his innovations in the field of helicopter construction. Born in Kyiv in 1889, he came a long way from the student polytechnic institute to the definition of the main aviation technology.
Sikorsky was a great admirer and creative researcher of Leonardo da Vinci, he saw the work of Vinci as a source of inspiration and innovative ideas for his helicopters.
Studying ideas and drawings at Vinci, Sikorsky incorporated new approaches to flight and technical solutions that he implemented in his helicopter designs. After Sikorsky's name appeared on the proscriptive Bolshevik lists, the famous aircraft designer fled Russia into exile and eventually landed in America with little money and few prospects.
In 1923, Igor Sikorsky founded the company "Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation", which became a leader in the production of helicopters. His inventions changed the picture of the aviation industry, making the transition from fixed wings to helicopters. Sikorsky made a significant contribution to the development of helicopter technology, creating many innovative models that were characterized by high maneuverability and efficiency.
His legacy lives on and is remembered.
His inventions are still used by US presidents from Eisenhower to Trump.

Sikorsky's cap, known as the Sikorsky hat, is now on display at the Cradle of Aviation Museum on Long Island, New York, along with other interesting exhibits that combine the history of aviation and space.
The museum is a testament to Igor Sikorsky's great contribution to the development of this aviation technology and an inexhaustible source of inspiration for future police engineers.
In honor of the Ukrainian aircraft designer, we named our new skeleton model "Sikorsky". The shape has retained maximum functionality and similarity to the first helicopter on which it took off and successfully landed.
