Curly ash scales, file material blade from one of our members. I asked him to make a bushcrafting at Christmas as a gift for a friend, I liked it so much that I had to have one for myself. Six and a half inch blade, a full .200 inch thick spine, and overall length of 11.75 inches. Weighing in at a solid 10.9 ounces/307 grams, this hair popping sharp will handle branch lopping, pole trimming, and batoning firewood with ease.
