Yes, the blade is full tang.It extends past the handle scales and has an exposed portion for hammering or light prying jobs.

The knife is a fixed blade. It is also "full tang" meaning the blade runs all the way through the handle. It is a very sturdy blade and a fine knife through and through.

No. According to the Morakniv website - this is a Rat Tail tang knife, and NOT a full tang knife. Rat tail tang refers to the blade thinning in size inside the handle, and being either secured with a screw or embedded (moulded) within the handle material itself.

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, it is Full Tang, and it does hold a good edge. You'll be happy with this knife.

You cannot see the tang through the handle to tell whether it has a full tang, but according to one review I found here http://www.modernbushman.com/2011/09/23/cold-steel-kukri-machete-97km-a-must-have-survival-tool/ , it is full.

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

I believe that it is Chinese steel and no it is not a full tang knife. The handle is hollow and doubles as storage.

Yes, the blade is full tang... a shirasawa is designed to highlight but more importantly to protect a katana blade

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!!

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.

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!

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.

It is full tang and a complete waste of money. I sent mine back. Do not buy.

While the tang is hidden by the handle, I assume its is a full tang knife. It is a great knife and remains incredibly sharp. I use it for most of my slicing and chopping but will switch out to a German chefs knife or a cleaver when a task requiring brute force is needed as I want to protect this knives from possible damage. It is the same basic knife as the classic series, but the copper layering make it visually beautiful and unique.
