I made this from an old piece of rebar that I found at one of my job sites. The curve of the handle keeps your hand clear of the blade. I flattened out the very end of the handle to give you an emergency glass breaker. The overall length is approximately 1 foot, including the curve of the handle. The blade is 5" long and 1" wide. The handle is 7" long and 5/8" wide. As with all my knives, it will come exactly as pictured and sharpened. Thank you!
