The Large Retribution Fighter from custom knife maker Jerry Hossom is a knife that resembles the Roman kopis, or fighting sword. The blade, 11.125″ in length, is made from CPM-3V steel that has a DLC coating. The handle is made from dyed stabilized burl and sports mosaic pins, which nicely complements the wooden handle. With an overall length of 18″ and weighing a hefty 15 ounces, the Large Retribution Fighter feels substantial in hand yet is light enough for some serious zombie close combat fighting. This knife was acquired from Blade 2015. (Photo: darcuss – BladeForums)
