I'm not sure what you wanted for a handle. The traditional Kabar-style knives had handles made from a compressed stack of leather washers. I have had throwing knives with a full tang that was wrapped with a leather cord or strap. Usually wrapped handles these days are wrapped with something more like nylon parachute cord. If you want something really tough you could look at the Ranger knives with cord-wrapped handles:

On the other hand you could also look at the Cold Steel True Flight throwing knife. It doesn't cost a lot and is a convenient size and rugged:

Get a Benchmade 10520 Offsider. I have one, and I think it's an excellent "fighting knife" that doesn't cost a whole handfull of money.

My choice would be the SOG Bowie.
