Brand new directly from Smith & Sons, USA.

Blade: Full tang, +3 mm thick D2 tool steel comes in a full flat grind for excellent slicing performance and durability with a drop point profile that serves well in a variety of tasks from food prep to fire building. Semi-stainless D2 combines moderate corrosion resistance and toughness with an aggressive, long wearing edge. The spine is a classy fine satin, while the grinds are heavily stonewashed to hide wear from use.

Handle: Flared brass pins securely attach the stunning Bocote wood handle scales to the full tang over black fiber liners. Shaped and contoured for comfort, this handle is designed for extended use, with an index cutout and pommel swell for a secure grip. An attached leather lanyard provides added security and grip in use.

Sheath: Carries via a right hand brown leather belt sheath.

D2 Tool Steel: Used as a die cutting steel since WW II, D2 offers a good combination of hardness and wear resistance with moderate toughness and stain resistance. High chromium content for a tool steel (10-13%) gives D2 better corrosion resistance than most high carbon steels.
