The CRKT Shinbu Fixed blade is a specialized tool intended for military and special forces. James Williams designed this military knife for fighting in close. In entry and search operations, silence is often critical--the Shinbu comes into play when firearms cannot be used. The handle is classic cord wrapped with ray skin underlays. It can be carried in multiple positions and comes with a custom Kydex sheath. The Shinbu demands respect, and is certainly not a sport or work knife, but it can truly be a lifesaver for the military professional. This is a knife that would have been carried by the Samurai. SPECIFICATIONS: Blade: Length: 9.25" Thickness: 0.233" Steel: YK-30, 57-59 HRC Overall: 14.75" Weight: 13.3 oz. Handle Material: Cord Wrapped with Ray Skin underlays Sheath: Kydex
