Chief-N-Rex,
Thanks for the kudos. Here's a practical way to go with my 4 5/8" version...especially for "whatever" may be needed of it...to include smackin' open coconuts, metal can tops of skulls! Maroon micarta with all matching brass hardware.
Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris
PS: See that silver metal, sticking outta' the middle of the skull-crusher/coolie cap? That's the end of the "full tang"...Plenty strong enough, indeed...CCS
