Description
Full-tang field knife with a micarta handle. Recurve-type blade with a wave-shaped cutting edge. The spine runs straight, extending the line of the tang in the handle for about two-fifths of the blade, before dropping towards the tip in a slightly concave line. As a result, we have an interesting case where the point is significantly dropped downwards. Partial, low hollow grind. The handle is relatively heavy (which is typical for Pakistani knives) with micarta scales, as well as a stainless steel bolster and pommel. Plain leather sheath with a snap fastener closure.
