The spine works well as a striker for ferro rods.
The knife comes in a classic leather sheath for belt carry.
As a tool steel knife, the knife will rust if exposed to water or humidity over time. Wipe down and re-oil after use.
The rich birch handle is hand sanded to its final shape and given a beautiful satin finish. The smooth and rounded shape makes it a perfect tool for long and hard work, without giving any hotspots. The tang is held in place by two thick brass rivets and a pipe rivet in the back.
