Bone Breaker

[SteelSlaver]

Someone contacted me about my D2 knives and was wondering if I could do one with a bone breaker. I though this was a notch just in front of the guard. Am I wrong or does this term have different meaning to others. I know about skull crushers and other items on the cap. Also have seen a knife with a shape on top of the blade just ahead of the handle reffered to as a bone breaker. Any one here got a good definition. Thanks Jim

I think your right about the notch. Sounds like a Dark Ops knife feature.

I'd just ask for clarification.

Jim, I would ask the customer to clarify the term to be sure of what he wants. But check out the text on this item, where it talks about the chopping edge, or bone breaker. You can see it clearly on the back of the blade.

while I would also suggest clarifying with the customer, the bone breaker is similar to the one on the coldsteel, the notch on the blade in front of the guard, I think, is commonly called a spanish notch and is used to catch and trap the opponent's blade.

Actually, the "other" type of bone breaker is frequently seen on bird-and-trout knives and is like a single large serration, frequently in the ricasso. Scroll down to "H" in this listing for a rather poor view of the idea. It is intended for removing the lower leg and feet from gamebirds. http://colincoxknives.com/Online Catalog.htm

Yup, I am going to have him clarify. I appreciate the answers. About as clear as I already was. LOL NOt. Thanks though Jim
