This knife is a stainless steel construction with an electroplated finish on the blade of all the Cursed Souls this knife has collected. This finish protects the blade against rust and prolongs the life of the knife. The full tang handle is wrapped in a black nylon braided cording to create a comfortable and firm hold. You can also untie the cord and customize the braid yourself. The cord can also be used for other multi-purpose while outdoors on the hunt for your next Zombie victim. The sharp blade makes it easy to slice and dice with ease. Included is nylon sheath with belt loop to keep at your side at all times.
