Interesting to see that the enlarged tip was planned for and not just forged out from uniform stock.

BTW, what is the blade's thickness?

Thank you Kai! I've known it as well, the lamination was visible despite the hard corrosion, one reason to clean the blade.
It's a very massive knife, it's 9 mm thick at the base and still 3 mm near the tip of the blade.

I LOVE what you did with the blade!

Hello Jose,
It was a very good friend, not me! Also when he isn't a member he lurking regulary here and will read your compliment! I think that this knife is very old.
