This dual edged knife is of the size to serve as a small fighter or boot knife. The CPM S30V is a great edge holding steel, as well as very corrosion resistant. The handle has been designed so it can easily be maneuvered in ones hand, without being uncomfortable. The stainless steel guard has been glass bead textured and all edges are smoothed over. A beautiful Carpathian Elm Burl makes up the handle, with a paua shell cover hiding the heat treated pin. The medium rise sheath is of premium cow hide, overlaid with salmon leather. A secure snap cover holds the knife in its sheath.
