Overview
Made in early 1983 Shiva Ki Developed this model as an extremely fast, quick-in-the-hand, light weapon, making it ideal as a soldier killing blade. 1/4" blade thickness and 1 1/4" blade depth. The military style commando handle is made from non-slip Krayton with narrow tang and a coated brass pommel nut, which is down tight. One can take the handle off for cleaning. This model is unique and rare as it has a double clay-tempered blade with a double temper line and a very intricate hamon. Extra duty leather sheath included with the knife. This knife can be seen in the March 2004 issue of "Tactical Knives" on page 62 in an article written by Dominique Beaucant which will be given along with a 5x7 picture of the actual model. Shiva Ki stands by all of his products with free sharpening, re-finishing, and re-handling.
