The “Full Belly” refers to increased blade profile curve resulting in a stronger tip. I often think of these as “Old School” sloyds designed to be more multi-purposed than the the modern ultra fine tipped siblings. These make better belts knives and shop knives. I like the way the belly handles harder to carve woods with trickier grain, but I’ll you figure out the knives strength.
These have a simple Rosette stamp for decoration
Flat ground at 27 degrees provides a nice balance of bite and control in steering
80CrV2 is fairly simple low allow carbon steel that provides a fine grain structure for a keen edge while being easy to sharpen on most any medium from waterstones to diamonds.
