Had a friend watching when I did some cutting/chopping tests with this blade before final finish. His first comment was "that's a hard use knife". Had to go with that as a title for the post. It's forged 5160, edge quench, belt finish on the flat and forge finish on the rest. Handle is composite rubber with 5/16" stainless Corby rivets. The blade is flat ground with slow distal taper leaving a lot of metal toward the front. This one will flat out chop and slice. Comes with custom leather sheath that can be carried left or right.
OAL: 12 1/2"
Blade: 7" to the plunge
Width: 1 7/8"
Thickness: 3/16"
Price: $210.00 PayPal (ruger315@charter.net) or money order.
