Fixed Blades

[Flashman]

I have been contemplating the purchase of a 119 or similar model. My question is whether they are full tanged knives. If not are they are strong?

The whole series of 119 series (102-121), Vanguard series(191-192/691-692), Intrepid (187/189), and Nighthawk (650/653/655) are all full tang models. In fact, I can't think of any fixed 'production ' model we have that has a non-full. We do some special projects from time to time that don't have full tangs.

Jeff, thanks for your prompt reply. Is the tang a full tang or is it tapered? Thanks.

Flashman,
They all are full and untapered.
