This excellent subhilt fighter has genuine buffalo horn handles that are etched for grip. This knife looks almost too pretty to use but it really is built to kick some ass with a full tang and the scales are riveted into the handle with 8 different pins - plus this knife is extremely thick at .20 or about double what most knives are so you know it will stand up to some serious abuse or just be a great traveling companion if you take good care of it. The bevel on the blade is excellent too with a deep hollow grind and cutouts at the top of the spine for a thumb grip. Also includes leather belt sheath with snap.
