At the heart of this blank is a 4.5" Damascus steel clip point blade, known for its sharp, controllable tip and versatile cutting profile. The clip point design offers precision for piercing, slicing, and detail work, while the broad belly accommodates smooth, efficient cutting.

The slightly sharpened edge allows makers to refine the blade to their preferred sharpness and finish, giving complete control over the final cutting performance.
The full tang construction ensures maximum durability and stability. Extending the entire length of the blade and handle, the tang allows for secure attachment of virtually any handle material, including wood, micarta, bone, G10, or other custom options. This construction provides consistent balance, strengthens the knife against impact, and ensures that the finished piece will withstand years of use without compromising performance or safety.

Its size makes it suitable for a variety of uses, from outdoor tasks and hunting to display-quality collector pieces.
