An incredibly thick 440C stainless steel dagger, the SID. Thick, the full tang blade is sandwiched between two carefully sculpted green canvas Micarta scales. The knife measures a full 11 5/8? Of fully usable cutting edge on both sides since the dagger is sharpened all the way from tip down to the ricasso on both edges of the blade. This technologically challenging wonder of a dagger does perfect duty as a combat companion.
Wide at the widest point. Each of the scales is carefully sculpted from green canvas Micarta.
Micarta is the common term for resin impregnated fiber compounds. Produced by layering linen with resin and then adding heat and pressure. The heat and pressure combine with the materials to create a chemical reaction called polymerization that transforms the layers into an incredibly stable and durable product called Micarta.Micarta is nearly impervious to weather as well as most oils and solvents. Because of this, it is highly prized as knife handle materials for knives that are expected to see hard use in a wide variety of environments-such as combat duty. The handle scales are attached to the handle tang with two 3/8? The one closer to the butt of the handle can easily double as a lanyard hole. This means you can get an even more secure grip on the handle through the use of a lanyard.
This handle is further improved with spectacular quillions (the two parts that jut out from the top of the handle and keep your hand from slipping up onto the blade when making piercing cuts). They are perfectly curved to proved a solid, comfortable resting place for your fingers as you choke up on the S. Comes with sheath, box and paperwork.
