High quality solid aluminum training knife. The 4 inch blade is extra thick (can be easily covered in chalk for marking cutting points) and tapered for a more realistic feel. The handle is wrapped in nylon cord to provides a secure grip for performing the most rigorous training drills. No cut out holes for a heavier feel. Will not cut flesh. Overall 8in x 1.25in x .25in; .30 lbs.Note: Because these are handcrafted; there may be slight variations from the stock photograph. This will not affect performance or durability! CAUTION: Always train under proper supervision. NOT designed for contact training!
