Does the blade run all the way through the handle in one piece?

Yes. The "American Test Kitchen" staff has it listed as well as the best knife after testing many.

Ohh yeah. This is WAY better than the plastic handle version. It's big and sturdy, just the way I like it. Also, that's what she said.

Yes, it is agreat knife, I have 2 of them, they are very sharp and I only have them sharpened professionally. Cooks Magazine reviewed a lot of knoves and this was #1, and the cheapest!!!

No, as part of the handle is hollow. My understanding is that there is a metal sleave that attaches to the blade tang, but I have never taken the plug out of the handle to look.

No. The blade component extends into the hollow handle about one inch (of the four-five inch handle). It appears affixed to the handle by a little six sided bolt into the blade and a hollow cross base on the inside of the hollow handle through which the end of the blade fits inside. Perhaps that end of the blade is glued into the handle cross brace. I accidentally bought a second one of these and I'm looking forward to giving it to a friend of mine with 30 wooded/marshy acres in Wisconsin. Probably my favorite economical survival knife. It's a heavy piece of shiny metal with all those extras.

The knife is a fixed blade. It is also "full tang" meaning the blade runs all the way through the handle. It is a very sturdy blade and a fine knife through and through.

No, this is a 3-piece razor. The handle unscrews from the head, which then separates into the two pieces that secure the blade. It's a very secure design for holding the blade firmly, and only takes a few seconds to change.

Yes, it does. Easy to use in either hand, comfortable grip and well balanced handle. Can't go wrong with this knife, I'm very satisfied.

I believe it does but not full width. Meaning the blade tang is not the same size as the blade. This is a great knife!

The blade does not run all the way Through the handle. But it's a nice knife.The knife was razor sharp and good sheath but here's the down side the handle looks and fills like bone but not

Yes it does. The handle is hollow, and there is a hole only on the top side.

Yes it does. You have to push on the back of the blade, from there the knife does the work.

The handle and blade are one piece. I would recommend removing the wrap on the handle and replacing it with something smoother.The cord that comes wrapped around it makes it very uncomfortable to hold. Put a sturdy lanyard on the end & you're ready to go.

No, it won't go all the way through. From the tip to the handle is a little over 8 in. There are about 4 in. of bristle. When I use the brush I brush from one end and then brush from the other. I hope this is helpful.

No, but it leaves chunks above the blade that don't get sliced and requires constant cleaning. Its very annoying.
626227
Yes but the edge on the back is not as sharp as the front but still very sharp and the blade doesn't go all the way to the handle on the back.

No. It screws into the hole on the tip of the handle. I have had no issue with it coming out.

Yes, it does spring right out. No, it is not very durable as there is a significant amount of room and play between the base of the blade and the handle when the blade is open.

The handle is sort of rubberized and I think the blade is just molded inside of it. Very sturdy, I have cut down trees with it.
