Hand Forged Thai Jungle blade. Built from scratch using recycled leaf spring (1085) heavy duty truck steel. Thick 3-4mm spine allowing for heavy chopping action. Local Thai Padauk wood with blonde-brown, sometimes reddish wood grain. Tapered tang goes right down to the pommel, also set with epoxy.
This is a strong, durable field bushcraft blade capable of heavy hitting & deep cuts. Used to take down bamboo, coconuts or medium sized trees, with ease. One of our favourite blades here in Thailand.
