The PSK (Personal Safety Knife) was designed as a Special Edition in the American Bushcraft knife series, perfect for military, hunting, camping or survival use. The Black Canvas handle is available on our "Mortised Tang" models. The tang is full exposed along the top of the handle and sandwiched down into the handle. It is actually a full tang knife but the lower portion of the tang is covered by the handle material. Black Canvas Micarta is one of the most durable handle materials, and finishes up beautifully with a nice mild texture that aids in gripping without being sticky in the hand. We have chosen the Micarta because it is virtually indestructable. Once installed, the finished handle is totally impervious to heat, cold, dampness and even total immersion in water or oil. Ergonomic handle allows for safe, comfortable grip. Sharpshooter Systems Kydex Sheath is included, and can be mounted for Right or Left Handed Carry.
