Here's a big fully flat ground cleaver for maximum chopping action. This one has a plungeless grind on both sides and is finished with a convex edge. The black over coyote brown cord wrap has been fully soaked with West System epoxy for a durable and comfortable handle. This knife comes with a custom teklok compatible kydex sheath. I did the heat treat with my digitally controlled kiln and quenched the knife in purpose made quenching oil. The finish is a combo of acid etched and antique browned with a polished edge.

It's about 11.5" long with a 4.75" handle, 3" tall blade - Big!
Made from .25" thick 5160 steel
exposed knocker pommel

Sold
