Tatang is a Tagalog term of address reserved for only the most feared and
respected martial artists.
In honor of this proud
warrior tradition, Blackhawk has made a knife that distills the savage cutting
power of the traditional Filipino barong into a smaller, more versatile package.
When gripped at the rear of the pistol-grip-style, thermoplastic rubber handle,
the weight-forward balance of the Tatang's black epoxy-coated 1085C tool-steel
blade gives it tremendous reach and chopping power. Choking up on the integral
subhilt shifts the balance back for more controlled cutting, trapping, and
backcutting with the sharpened false edge.
Designed by edged-weapons
expert Michael Janich, this incredible knife comes complete with a reinforced
ballistic nylon sheath.
