Brisket Knife with Black Walnut handle

This is a large knife for slicing Briskets, the photos do not show scale well. The blade is a full 12" (305mm) in length with a 7.25" (184mm) handle. The overall length is a bit over 19" (482mm) The blade is AEB-L stainless steel with a full-length S-Grind or fuller. The radius of the grind is only 6" (152mm) as opposed to the larger 36" (914mm) radius normally used. So, the term Fuller is probably more appropriate. Semantics aside, it keeps meat from sticking to the blade. The spine measures 3/32” (2.4mm) thick. The handle is Black Walnut with black and white G-10 spacers and a black Micarta bolster. The whole thing is on the heavy side at just over 9 oz. (255g) with a distinct weight forward feel. The blade guard is black, vegetable tanned leather, 8-9oz, with brown stitching. Minor aesthetic flaws on leather blade guard, price reduced accordingly.
