Blade: The up swept tip and generous belly of the trailing point profile make it an ideal choice for hunters and outdoor adventurers. The blade has a subtle full hollow grind with a plain edge for powerful slicing performance and file work on the spine for a more custom feel. The W2 tool steel blade tapers to a fine point for piercing and detail work, with a subtle index guard and thumb ramp delivering traction and control. A Japanese inspired Hamon provides visual appeal for users and collectors alike.

Handle: Stainless pins solidly secure the comfortably contoured, polished Python Micarta handles to the full tang. Offering a clean, handsome look with visual appeal for collectors, the handles are durable and well-designed for serious use and security in the grip.

No sheath

W2 Tool Steel: W2 is a water hardening non-stainless tool steel especially popular with custom makers as it allows for a striking hamon blade pattern from tempering. Maximum working hardness is 63-65 HRC for good edge holding and cutting performance with a thin edge.
