MastaStan Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Finished this knife yesterday for my brother in law, who is a fireman. 01 steel with walnut handle and stainless finger guard. Blade is 5mm thick and 4 inches long. Overall length is 8.5 inches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.IVO Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 5 mm is a lot for such a small blade, nonetheless no one will break it. Good fit and finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan Sawicki Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Looks cool but I'm confused by the handle construction. Is it like a taco where the wood wraps around the tang? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
