Hi all, here is another knife I have for you
As usual, link to my website for more informations: https://duffleshop.com/fighting-tanto

This is a fighting knife. It's fast, lightweight and dangerous. All parts of the blade are sharpened to razor sharp, the swedge is sharpened at 25°, the front bevel is convex grind and the main bevel is sharpened at 15° and is slightly recurved for best cutting performance. I strongly suggest you read all infos on my website. I tried to keep the cost as low as possible while providing a knife that can perform extremelly well for its price range, so you can expect some very minor tool marks. This knife is meant to be use to cut and stab fleshy materials and protective equipment, it is not a chopper and should not be used as one.I also built the handle so you can hold it 3 different ways (standard, reverse and stabbing grip). For thoses who doubt, I made a short video of me testing the knife on a kevlar vest and test the tip strenght. I don't take myself seriously and am no expert in martial arts, but I build my knives to the highest standard I can achieve, and so far, none have failed and this knife is no exception.
