Yes. It features full-tang construction for maximum strength, balance, and durability under heavy use.
6. What is the handle made from?
The handle is Kray-Ex (Kraton), a textured, slip-resistant thermoplastic that provides a secure grip in wet or adverse conditions and absorbs shock during heavy cutting.
7. What sheath is included?
The knife comes with a Secure-Ex polymer sheath for safe storage and reliable carry.
8. What is a tanto blade designed for?
The tanto profile features a reinforced, high-point tip that excels at piercing hard materials and resists breakage under extreme pressure. The straight primary edge also performs well for push cuts and slicing.
9. Is this knife suitable for survival and outdoor use?
Yes. The large blade, full-tang construction, VG-10 edge retention, and durable handle make it well-suited for survival, bushcraft, camping, and heavy-duty field tasks.
10. Is the blade plain or serrated?
The CS35AE features a plain edge, which allows for cleaner cuts and easier field sharpening.
11. How should I care for the VG-10 San Mai blade?
Clean and dry the blade after use, apply a light coat of oil to prevent corrosion, sharpen with a whetstone at approximately 20–22 degrees per side, and store in its sheath in a dry place.
