I didn't know at first look either so I looked up knife reviews of it on YouTube and yes the tang is through the entire handle

Michael, yes this knife has a full length tang. From the blade guard to the pommel the tang is covered with leather rings. It's durable and fits well in your hand. It also reduces slippage due to perspiring.

No, the knives are not full tang. However I would say they are 3/4 tang. The handle to blade ratio is good and has great balance.

Yes, this is a true "full tang" knife (as are all the Beckers). I'm very pleased with my 3 beckers, and you'll have a difficult time finding a negative word on them from anyone.

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

Yes it is full tang, you can see where the blade meets the bottom of the handle. It is the exact same knife but stamped US Army.

I took a look at it this morning and you cannot see the blade go all the way down the knife (the handle covers it completely), but it is definitely as heavy in the handle as it is in the blade. I am 99% sure it is a full tang, but cannot guarantee it!

Noah, I'm not positive if this is a full tang knife or not. As far as I know, it must have a piece of metal most, if not all the way down the handle. If you are considering buying this, I would definitley recommend it. I use it as my hunting knife and have cut through multiple deer and chopped through bone with this knife with ease. It's held up to everything I've put it through and it stays sharp as well. Best knife I've ever bought!

Yes, it is a full tang, perhaps more accurately described as a "stick tang," since the tang itself is narrower than the blade, but that is obvious just looking at the handle.

This knife, and the other K-Bar military knives are NOT FULL TANG! Full tang means that the blade runs down the full length AND the full width of the handle. These knives have a "rat tail" tang which is only about half or less of the blade width running down the middle of the handle. They are very good knives but are not as strong as a true full tang knife. If you apply a lot of pressure side ways to the blade or use for heavy chopping they will snap off flush with the handle. A full tang knife will not

If by full tang you mean the blade is one piece of metal that goes through the length of the handle, then yes. On the very back-end of the handle, is a protruding section of the metal that can be used to crack-open items.

No this knife is not full tang. I ordered it and sent it back. It's of rather poor quality, if you're looking for a hunting knife I suggest buck knives.

No, it definitely does NOT have a full tang. However, the tang does go deep enough to hold up for it's intended use. I've hacked thumb-sized limbs off live trees in a single swing and it shows no sign of loosening up. I couldn't tell you the weight in ounces, but it's very very light. The blade is thin and sharp, but strong. With the optional cover, it's light enough to attach to your pack for long treks.

I can't answer that question. You cannot tell if this is full or half tang from the handle. The package does not state either.

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

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

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!!
