This knife was forged from 1080 high carbon steel and has an Ironwood handle. There is a forged in guard on this knife as well. The blade measures 3.25 inches and the overall length is just under 8 inches. This knife comes with a custom fit handmade leather sheath featuring the classic basket weave stamping. It is made to be carried right handed on the belt. I am raffling this combo and when all 36 entries sell I will draw for the winner live on my Facebook page Heath Creek Forge.
