Overview

This Trench Knife by Toad Forge features a jeweled spear point blade with a partially sharpened top edge and fullers, .189" blade stock and 1.175" blade depth, hidden tang construction.

This is the 9th knife in the series of trench knives, the design inspired by my son, who asked me to make him one. I have done them in double-edged configurations, as well as a couple with saw blade inserts. The blade is 1095 steel, forged and milled to shape, and kiln-hardened and tempered. The grip is machined from aluminum, and hard anodized here in the shop. I do not have or use CNC equipment. The glass breaker, it's supporting structure, the guard and the fasteners are 440 stainless steel. The grip inlay is black linen micarta. The sheath is wax-impregnated burgundy latigo harness leather, hand stitched, with copper rivets and aluminum reinforcing plates.
