Damascus Depot 6.5" Full Tang Drop Point Knife Blue Bone Scale

Compact full-tang Damascus knife

This 6.5-inch hand-forged knife uses a 3-inch drop-point blade made from over 200 layers of 1095 and 15N20 steel. The full-tang construction runs the blade steel through the entire 3.25-inch blue bone handle for maximum strength. A gut hook and three silver pins add utility and reinforcement. It ships with a thick cowhide leather sheath designed for belt carry.

Blade capacity and practical limits

The 3-inch blade and roughly 4 mm thickness handle skinning, camp chores and general pocket tasks with control. The drop-point profile and gut hook work well for field dressing, while the full tang resists lateral stress during batoning or prying. The compact 6.5-inch overall length limits reach on larger game or heavy brush clearing, so hunters needing a longer slicing edge will want a bigger knife.

Build quality and daily carry implications

Twist-pattern Damascus steel and the pinned bone scales create a rigid, corrosion-aware package that demands wiping and oiling after each use. The leather sheath secures the knife on a belt but absorbs moisture, so long-term storage inside it will promote rust. Remove the blade, apply a light coat of oil, and store separately to preserve the edge and finish over time.
