Blade: The robust, hollow ground, San Mai VG10 stainless steel drop point offers durability and cutting performance with a beautiful satin finish and a Hamon-like lamination line.

Jimping on the spine provides added traction and security paired with the guard and handle.

Handle: The full tang construction is over-molded with grippy Kray-Ex rubber that is non-slip, weatherproof and easy to clean with soap and water. A polished guard and pommel end add to the visual appeal while providing added security and balance to the ergonomic handle.

Sheath: Carries via a molded polymer sheath with modular nylon belt loop.
