Fixed blade, double edged, sheath knives with 3” to 4” blades. Both blades and grips are generally all black. Examples include but are not limited to: Cold Steel’s FGX Boot Blade II and the Brave Heart. The Gerber Black Guardian Back-Up Knife with a 3.25” blade, 7.125” overall size, priced at under $50 seems particularly appealing as it very closely approximates the appearance of more common sgian dubhs.
