Just received a package, which included this damast trench knife(as I called it).
The lenght of the blade is 230 millimeters, which means, that this is hell-of-a-knife. The thickness od the blade itself is 5 millimeters. The whole knife is long somewhere between 360 and 370 millimeters.
The handle is walnut wood, and it's not perfectly rounded. It's slightly oval shaped, for far better grip. Afterall, it is coated with somekinda oil or something water resistant.
On both sides of tha handle there are 2 small 3-4 millimeters thick distancers, which has small grooves in them, just for better look and are also made from damast.
Blade is attached to the handle by the metal rod, that goes throught the guard, handle and small distancers, and is tightened at the end by also damast nut.
Around the handle, there is a guard, that could be used as protection from fingers and/or for hitting, in way of knuckle duster. It hasn't section for each finger, but certanly is very useful. It measures from 22 to 33 millimeters into wideness, and has rounded and "spiked" sort of grooves on each side all over for really great look.
The blade is abnormally sharp, shaved rest of my arm as soon as I got it into hands.
The knife sheat is made from high quality leather, on top has loop to attach the knife to the belt and also a protection belt, to keep the knife in the sheat, to prevent falling out in any position/rotation.
It's decorated with sun-looking stamps over the front side of the sheat.
