No guard or bolster — clean, direct transition from blade to handle.

The handle is shaped from warm reddish-brown hardwood with a smooth polished finish that highlights the natural wood grain and color variations. The straight ergonomic profile sits comfortably in the hand for a secure, natural grip. Full-tang construction runs the full length of the handle, secured with steel pins for solid, durable build quality.

The Sheath

The cognac and orange-tan leather pancake sheath features an all-over honeycomb embossed pattern across the full front face, with tan stitching along all edges and a leather thong loop on the side for additional carry options. The pancake-style construction wraps both sides of the blade for a snug, protective fit on the belt.
