LarryWW1246 Knife Enthusiast Registered: 03/20/06 Posts: 1946	The catalog description of the Model 14 CDT says it has a 1/2-inch wide tang. Is there an image of this someplace? If we order this knife with a leather handle and aluminum butt cap, is the butt cap still screwed onto the tang like knives that have a 1/4-inch tang? Larry _________________________ Larry W.

Captain Chris Stanaback Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/14/05 Posts: 13178 Loc: Central Florida	Yes: The 1/2" tang is threaded, prior to the leather washers and butt cap being installed. "ALL" of it is also epoxied. In the unlikely event the washers should become dry and begin to "check-up", the shop can re-tighten them using the afore-mentioned method. Hope this helps, Capt.
