The Jac Wild survival knife is a well thought-out design handmade with precision and care. It is a little over 9.25" overall with a 4.75" blade, high-saber flat ground with a secondary bevel that is razor sharp all the way to the base. The blade shape is a modified drop point, wider at the belly than the base, but with a straight edge. This gives an increased cutting ability without a hard-to-sharpen recurve. The spine has a hybrid grind - round near the hand and square near the tip, for both comfort and scraping/striking.
The exposed full tang handle is skeletonized for weight reduction and balance, with 4" of double-layered black paper micarta handles fastened by epoxy and stainless steel corby bolts. The handles are contoured for maximum comfort and retention, and have no rough or hot spots. The butt extends beyond the handles and has both a slot loop for cordage and teeth for scraping and striking.
The sheath is double-stitched black leather with a large right-carry belt loop and incredible retention. The blade locks in and won't fall out, but can be removed with a firm tug.
The price for the unused, uncarried Jac Wild is $105 shipped in the US, Paypal included.
