Overall Length: c. 8 1/2"

Blade: BS1407 High Carbon steel, forged finish.

Additional Info: This is the basic version of my GreenMan bushcraft knife. This sturdy knife comes complete with two glow in the dark Tritium inserts, these radioactive isotopes (safely housed in glass phials buried deep in the handle with a brass mirror behind it) are used in military gun sights and are guaranteed to glow for 25 years. The tip of the 2008 version has been rounded off to prevent damage to wood or hides when peeling the skin off a tree or animal (it’s also more comfortable when carving), where as the main part of the blade spine is ground square to act as a striker for the firesteel.
