Sarge
Description
A Damascus knife from the Zhbanov forge. The massive blade with a bowie profile and fuller refers to Russian military knives, with one exception: the cutting edge does not run in a straight line, as the military prefers, but has a wave-like shape, which provides better cutting when pulling towards oneself. The folding handle is made of wenge and birch bark with a duralumin bolster. The sheath is a Finnish-type, leather, slip sheath.
