This TAD exclusive Seward Sentinel is a combination of Japanese, Western, and Persian design cues to enhance performance and carry.
The Persisan profile blade features a point that is dropped more in line to resist shock while piercing. Ben left a dramatic hammer forged finish on the damascus blade with a swedge to relieve forward weight. The substantially dropped guard mates perfectly to the drop at the butt locking the knife in hand. Further aiding in grip is Ben's expertly done traditional cord wrap over brown G10 for subtle contrast. With the point and back of grip brought closer to centerline, forward piercing motions transfer shock straight back instead of angled away from the user. This point and grip redesign with the addition of a subtle drop to the butt allows the knife to be drawn and used in a push grip if desired. Combined, these features make the Sentinel fast, neutral and secure in hand.
The full tang and .187” spine thickness create a robust tool, capable of any task asked of it. The balance of the blade and handle design leave few tasks out of reach for this middleweight tanto.
How the knife is carried is just as important as the knife itself. The Sentinel includes a foldover style Kydex sheath and handmade titanium J-hook for IWB carry. The throat of the sheath is open to give a full and faster grip.
