Overview
The Astra Standard Issue or ASI, in short, is a knife that fits equally well in a colonial marine´s medic bag on the USS Sulaco or on an architects' desk for sharpening pencils and cutting out scale models.
Since launching the ASTRA in December, I have experienced an enormous interest in this fixed blade concept and have since developed ideas for various limited runs like this batch of handles in brass.
Here you can get the ASTRA handle in brass. The handle pattern on these is called "ARA" and is made from 5mm/ . 200" brass that has been patinated for a nice glow.
The ASTRA is a small utilitarian fixed blade built in a modular design that allows to interchanges blades and handles of your liking and need. Transports and stays safe in a small kydex sheath that allows for dropping the knife in the bottom of a jacket pocket, ride on your belt or maybe installing on the hul of your kayak. In short the perfect little blade for whatever you need it for.
The handle has weight reducing, grip enhancing milled slots. The blade attaches via two 6/40 titanium screws. Not included.
Has hand rub satin sheepfoot blade, with brass inlay. Comes with leather sheath, and zipper case. Excellent condition.
