The hold stays secure even when the rest of the hand is wet. Black-coated steel carries the blade from ring to tip. A deer silhouette sits etched into the coating near the spine. Matte black covers most of the surface, with a satin bevel along the edge. A drop point profile carries a modest belly out toward the tip. Black and red Micarta fills the handle in a zigzag pattern. Two white pins secure the material against the tang. That chevron texture gives the palm something to read without looking. A brown leather sheath sits visible in the background of this shot.
