Caiman the Peshkabz! The Peshkabz is an armor piercing dagger originally born in Afghanistan. While this is fairly obviously my own take on a traditional dagger, it keeps the spirit and utility intact. A Caiman is a fancy little cousin of the alligator, that has a very long narrow snout. Fierce and precise predators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"s2\"\u003eIt is forged from one solid piece of 5160 spring steel, perfectly balanced, with pyro painted texture on the handle and guard for added grip and style. The small guard ensures your hand will not slip onto the blade no matter how hard you are striking. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"s2\"\u003eThe blade is double edged with thick convex bevels on both sides; and a fuller running all the way down the blade into the handle to both lighten and stiffen the overall piece. It is EXTREMELY sturdy with no flex. You could stab this into a block of wood and stand on it with no issues. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"s2\"\u003eThe beautiful coloration on it is from my proprietary tempering process, and is a natural result of the heat treating, no artificial dyes or patinas. Just what the steel wants to do with a bit of encouragement in the right direction. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11.75”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Max Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10.7 OZ\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSteel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5160 high carbon spring steel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pyro painted textured steel (all one piece) \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSheath: Dark blue and wet formed leather with antiqued brass rivets and hand stitching along the edge utilizing waxed artificial sinew cordage. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMy blades have soul to them, They are entirely hand crafted, and unique.
