The second is one I assembled from a 6in Solingen Korium blade Epoxied into a drilled out "practice' Tanto handle, (a black plastic material by Cold Steel). The knife is not the prettiest, but it is an exceptional handler. very sleek.

An old team SOP was to throw your biggest knife last. We all carried about 5.
