This classic sub-hilt design fighter was first developed by Bob
Loveless, one of the founding members of the Knifemaker's guild.
It's perhaps the quintessential combat knife.
Its 8" blade offers excellent reach and incredible penetration with
very little physical effort. The sub-hilt practically eliminates the
possibility of the hand being dislodged or coming into contact with
the blade. Plus, the sub-hilt facilitates rapid and effortless
withdrawal after insertion. The VG-10 San Mai III blade is perfectly
heat-treated and a double grind is expertly applied. Then the
surface of the blade is polished to a beautiful satin finish and the
edges are honed and buffed to hair-shaving sharpness!
The black G10 scales are fastened to the blade tang by 6 stainless
pins and are expertly hand-shaped and contoured.
