Does this knife have a full tang?

Yes it does. The sub-hilt is also part of the tang and is all one piece. All of the "Handmade" series knives are like this. One note of caution tho, keep he metal well oiled to keep it from oxidizing.

From the pins in the handle it looks full tang. I don't know, I don't have a knife like that.

Yes it most certainly is, as far as I know all of the knives in the BK series are full tang.

no it is not a full tang. if it were a full tang knife, the handle would be sandwiched between grip panels, with the tang exposed on the edges. this knife has a rat-tail/stick/narrow tang which does extend through the length of the handle (except for the last 1/4" of rubber) and yes, ontario knives are some of the best budget blades you can find. it's sad that so many are uneducated in knife physiology and yet so willing to give false information. btw, i can say that because i've studied bladesmithing and knifemaking for years.

Yes, the knife is full tang blade goes all the way through the handle to the butt of the knife

No, not full tang. What there is screws into a plastic handle. I've used this to easily and comfortably cut through limbs about 3/4 inch think. It's for light duty, and for this it works well. I like it.

I do not know for certain, but from the weight, balance and price, I would imagine that it is not full tang.

No, knife is not full tang. But feels very much so, one of the best grips you can find on a knife. Handle is made of a shaped plastic that does not ever look or fell like it will fall of. (Feels like you are holding a full tang knife) Hope that helps!

It is not full tang but it is sturdy. I practice cutting with it. Cuts nice.

I cannot determine if there is a Full tang. The handle is very solid, but I don't know how long the tang is. It does not go through to the end of the wooden handle like other Chinese knives that I own.

It is full tang. One of the best knife purchases I have ever made. Be sure to check state and county laws regarding this "quality cutting tool"

It has a "rat tail" type tang that runs 2/3 of the length of the handle. These knives are tough and I don't think that not having a full tang hurts it at all.

No, this is not a true full tang knife. It has a rat tail tang, meaning it extends the full length of the handle but not even close to the full width, significantly reducing the structural durability. Be warned, this is not a bushcraft knife. This is a combat knife. It was meant for combat, not chopping down trees and processing wood. If you put it through that, don't be surprised when (not if) it breaks. Excellent design for combat use though. I'd take it to Iraq, but not the woods.

It is not full tang. It is affixed extremely well top the handle though and isn't chinsy. I seriously doubt you or anyone else is going to break it. It's a big heavy duty chopping machine that can take heavy use. If your looking for a reason not to buy only thing I can think of is cheap looking sheath though it's solid and works fine. Also mine didn't come very sharp and I immediately put it on my wicked edge system

Yes, this knife has a full tang that extends all throughout the handle to be fixed to the brass butt/guard. It's a great knife: solid thick blade for its size, finger guard, handy grips, very comfortable in the hand while at work, features a 4 1/8" drop point, 420HC stainless steel blade (one of Buck's best), which holds a sharp edge well and is easy to be sharpened if needed to. A great skinner and all around camping, working and outdoor knife with 'civil' and appealing looks. Easy to carry! Can't get wrong with this!!

Not 100% sure. I can tell you that there's a bolt at the end of the knife to unscrew in the event that you want to attach it to a spear without the knife handle. That would lead me to believe the knife is "full tang". You'll like this knife.

I believe that it is a full tang. But like many knives (even those of high quality), the tang is fully-covered by the handle. A bit of the tang sticks out at the end of the knife's handle. I hope this helps.
