The knife has a handle made of a hard inner core of glass filled polypropylene, with Santoprene rubber molded and chemically bonded around it, essentially combining the two materials into one piece. This creates a handle that is soft and tacky when gripped, even when wet. This handle is lightweight, yet is exceptionally durable. This knife is great for hunting, and general purpose use. The Gator XDP serrated blade is made of high carbon stainless steel, honed to a razor edge. Includes a innovative sheath. The sheath is made of ballistic nylon with a molded plastic insert for safety. The knife is retained in the sheath by a nylon strap, secured with a snap button. The belt loop is also secured by a snap, allowing the sheath to be put on or taken off without the user having to remove their belt. This knife also comes with a limited Lifetime Warranty.
