This is my personal competition knife. I have used it since the beginning of this competition season. It is designed around my Cane Toad pattern and has a mortised tang with the tang exposed only on the bottom, palm side is covered. It is made from CPM M4 .350 of an inch stock. It weighs 31 oz. It's a beast! I think it is the heaviest blade used in competition. It is ground to .017 of an inch, and was heat treated by Peter's Heat Treating. It is the standard 15 inches over-all, with a 9 5/16" long blade with a 2" width.

Au contraire, Jose. Anyone who makes and wields a monster like that I shall be talking to most "respectfully."

Beautiful knife. Most impressive.

Thanks for that, I do wonder though if it is "Vorpal" enough for even you? It'll definitely Snick or Snack!

what material used for the knife handle?

That looks like some fun but real skills competition. Seriously? Chop a rolling golfball that pops out of a tube?

Cool looking blade, and tough competition, but it looks like loads of fun!
