4.375in Large Boot Knife Blade Blank Attached Guard BL078

The 4.375" Large Boot Knife Blade Blank with Attached Guard is engineered for custom knife makers who demand both performance and craftsmanship. Designed as a foundation for a compact yet formidable dagger, this blank delivers rugged durability, precise construction, and a design that’s ready to become a high-quality finished knife. Ideal for collectors, outdoorsmen, and makers looking to craft a dependable self-defense or utility blade, it combines practical functionality with striking visual detail.

At the heart of the blank is a 4.375-inch stainless steel dagger blade. The double-edged profile offers exceptional piercing capability and a classic dagger silhouette, perfect for precision cutting tasks or for creating a traditional boot knife. Crafted from stainless steel, the blade resists corrosion, ensuring it maintains its structural integrity and sharpness over time, even under heavy use. Its thickness and steel quality provide the rigidity required for a functional dagger while remaining workable for customization and finishing.

The full tang construction extends the blade through the handle area, providing maximum strength and balance for a secure grip. Full tang designs are essential for creating a durable, high-performing knife, and this blank allows makers to install a wide range of handle materials—wood, micarta, G10, or bone—tailoring both aesthetics and ergonomics to their vision.

Adding both function and visual appeal, the blade blank comes with a gold hand guard already attached. The guard not only provides hand protection but also enhances the overall look of the knife, giving a professional and polished starting point for any project. Its presence simplifies assembly while maintaining the classic dagger design, saving time while offering a visually striking element.

Measuring 8.6875 inches overall, this boot knife blank is compact yet commanding, ideal for concealed carry or display once completed. Its design supports a variety of finishing styles, from rugged, tactical knives to finely crafted collector’s pieces. Durable, versatile, and built with makers in mind, it offers a reliable base for a professional-quality blade.
