## Questions & Answers

**Q: What kind of tang does it have?**
A: Because of the balance issue with this model OKC knife. I decided to remove the molded handle and replace it and the finger guard with heavier brass and animal bone pieces. Well let me tell you that the handle falling or pulling off of the blade is not ever going to be a problem! It took two hours of hard work to get the handle off of the blade. This is a true full tang knife and it’s not skeletonized the balance issues come from the lightweight handle material. The tang is slightly smaller than the handle dimensions and the lanyard hole lining tube is pushed though a hole in the tang. I honestly don’t know what you could do to break the handle off of this knife. I have 3 different models of the OKC Spec series knives. I am completely impressed with the quality of such a economical knife. The only thing better about a K bar is the steel pommel.

**Q: what’s the difference between sp5 and sp10?**
A: sp 10 has a sabre grind, sp 5 has a flat grind, as well as the sp 10 being a heavier blade.

**Q: Is this blade 1/4" thick and is it a flat grind or a saber grind**
A: It is 1/4 thick and is flat ground

**Q: What is the difference between sp-5 sku 8320 and sp-5 sku 8681?**
A: It also appears that version 8320 was made using 1095 steel where the 8681 version is made using 1075 steel;
trading hardness for toughness. Personally, I prefer 1095 but this is a large fixed blade.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My 2nd Purchase Of This Ontario Bowie Knife.
*by P***E on July 27, 2023*

I heard that Ontario Knife was closing it's doors, so I decided to pick up a few more of their blades on Amazon before everything dries up and/or gets too expensive. I bought my first of this model back in the 1990s, and the one I bought last week appears to be exactly the same. These are well made knives that are solid budget friendly tools. Over the years, I've purchased 20+ Ontario knives and machetes for myself and for gifts, and I've been happy with the lot. Ontario is famous for having wonky grinds, so be prepared to do some reprofiling and sharpening to get your edge exactly where you want it. This knife is good for light chopping, limbing, and most camp tasks. It batons wood quite well, but it's not the best at food prep' with its 1/4 inch spine. The top swedge is not sharpened, which I like because it keeps it legal here in Hawaii. I'm sad to see another affordable American knife manufacturer go out of business.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This will make Michael Myers and Rambo crap themselves.
*by M***E on August 15, 2020*

Amazing! Not a fan of western blades, but for this one I make an exception. It's a knife that has great weight to it and the steel can take a beating! The scabbard is nice as well allowing for a thigh belt, it's big enough to slash with power behind it and the rubber handle allows for much use. It's a knife that will out do most others, given that's it's such a large knife it is the ladder of speed, power and effectiveness. Powerful, yet does not sacrifice speed, can preform a powerful slash yet can be stopped mid path as a faint and not pricy enough to make me worry about going all out with it if the time comes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am thrilled with this knife! (You can't beat the quality/price with a stick)!
*by J***B on April 23, 2019*

Another "home run" from Ontario Knife company! This blade is a perfect "companion" for my Ontario Knife Company Marine Raider Bowie (SP-10). Even with its 10" 1075 Carbon Steel blade (hardened to 57-59 HRC), it moves quickly and properly at the slightest command. Even the BK9 can't match the quality for the price paid. (Believe me when I tell you that I really appreciate KaBar's quality).I paid but $44.80 for the Ontario Knife Company Survival Bowie. This beauty would be a bargain at $60.00! This thing is "tougher than whip leather" and as useful as a Wenger "Swiss Army Multitool".As a big knife, it can do things a little knife can and more things that a smaller knife can't. This knife should be in every "bug out" bag and emergency kit. It is as "big and bad" as any other Bowie knife and it is "stronger than a country hoss". If you are worried about the clip point of this knife being "weak and/or fragile" RELAX! This Bowie was built to be used and used HARD! When the "chips are down" this is the Bowie knife you want at your side.Would I buy this knife again? I'll give that an unqualified YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT!
