This Tanto is a great size for all kinds of uses. It is ground from 3/16 inch thick 1095 carbon steel and heat treated by selectively heating the edge to a critical non-magnetic temperature and quenching in light oil. The blade is tempered at 400 degrees to produce an edge hardness of about 60 RC while the spine remains softer and very tough. The wood scales are Wenge and loveless bolts with epoxy used to fasten them to the knifes full tang with brass lined lanyard hole. An 8/9 ounce tooled leather pouch sheath with an integral belt loop comes with the Tanto.
SPECS:
Steel: 3/16" 1096
Blade Length: 4.8" long tip to wood scale with satin steel finished flats and bevels.

I prefer PayPal (my account is kelley_ward@keysight.com Note: there are 2 "e"s in kelley) but take other forms of payment.
