At the core of this blade blank is a 4.5-inch stainless steel drop point blade, a design celebrated for its balance of strength, control, and versatility.

Adding a touch of craftsmanship and elegance, the blank features a gold spacer integrated into the tang. This accent provides visual contrast and gives the finished knife a refined, polished look even before handle scales are added. The spacer helps define the knife’s overall aesthetic and enhances the appeal of the final build, making it suitable for collectors, hobbyists, or makers focused on producing a high-quality custom piece.
