Abstract

A knife is fabricated by first preparing a steel knife blade with an integrally attached steel tang, usually by forging. Aluminum is die cast over the tang to form a quillen, a butt, and a handle base intermediate the quillen and the butt. A polymeric handle is injection molded over the handle base.
