## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the handle made of?**
A: It is written in the description.  The handle is stainless steel and the blade is plastic.  I could be wrong but I suspect they have this backwards?  :)  In any case the description could be better with a bit more detail of what steel instead of this generic stainless description as well as what kind of plastic polymer is used for the handle.

**Q: Is this from their Professional-S series?**
A: No - The S Series are made in Germany, do not have the rivets in the handle, and cost almost 2x of the Classic Series.  As others have pointed out, you still get a great knife for the price.  My S knives still need to be honed and sharpened regularly.

**Q: Does this knife have a full tang blade that extends through the handle? Not possible to tell from the pictures.  Only visible from top of knife.**
A: This knife does have a full tang blade that extends through the entire handle.  An excellent knife.

**Q: when it says 8 inches, is that the length of the blade itself, or is that the blade plus the handle?**
A: 8 inches is the length of just the blade, handle not included in measurement
