Customization Details: 1. Removal of the matte black finish on the blade. (It is oil-coated.) 2. Approximately 5 cm cut from the end of the handle. (A new hole has been made for a lanyard.) 3. A recess has been added to the grip area of the handle for easier holding. (The original is just a straight rod. A gentle radius has been added to the area indicated by the white line in image 3.) 4. The original paint on the handle has been stripped, treated with a torch for a burnt finish, and then clear-coated. 5. A leather neck guard has been created. 6. Leather sheath (the original sheath is not included). (This was made through self-study, so please consider it a bonus. It functions sufficiently as a sheath.) The overall finish has a subdued aesthetic. Customization is a matter of personal preference, so please consider purchasing if you appreciate this style. It has been used for camping about 3 times. This is a used item, so please purchase with understanding.
