All are full tang and black carbon coated. But for more details rom left to right:
Short Black Ka-bar: Blade 5 1/4, Overall 9 1/4 Handle made out of Kraton G

Serrated Long Ka-bar: Blade 7, Overall 11 3/4. Handle made out of Kraton G

Straight Long Ka-bar: Blade 7, Overall 11 3/4. Handle made out of Kraton G
(If you look close you can see this is a pretty bet up knife. The Black on the blade is pretty much all burned off, it got used heavily last comping season for firewood chipping and coal stirring)

Straight Long Ka-bar: Blade 7 , Overall 11 7/8. Stacked Leather Handle

Nice bunch of knives you have. I also own a KB 7" - 1211 foliage green with a kydex sheet wrapped in paracord and I must tell you that I never go without it when outdoors. I forced it in ways that another ordinary knife will definitely brake, dig with it, battoning the hell of it and it still has a scary sharp edge. What can I say...It's the american AKM!
On EDC I wear the Leatherman Wave.

Hi,

Welcome to SRP. If you're interested in razors, you've surely entered the right place. You'll find tons of info on razors and everything related from these sites.
You've made really beautiful Scandinavian knives. I highly respect such hand working skills.

At first i thought you were Finn because of your name. There aren't too many of us Scandinavians here, not at least active. Maybe we some day (in faraway future) will be able to make SRP Scandinavian meeting.

Multa voi kysellä lisätietoja tai mitä tahansa jos tarvit apuja näitten sivujen tulkkaamisessa. Även pä Svenska, but rather Finnish or English
