I will pay for one of these. Definitely.
We have to jump on this while it's still a meme. Eventually the Space Force will be nerds and computer programmers. (Not cool, not sexy, but needed.) Right now it's Space Shuttle door gunners, space marines and warp drive |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Specifically designed to cut open enemy spacesuits? I always cheer when my kids are watching new cartoons and someone knocks over a beehive and gets chased by bees* or falls into quicksand. *when I was a little boy my dad hit a wasps nest mowing the lawn and was chased by the wasps.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I do have basically the same design in a Camillus I bought used. The more modern style knives like Esee do have more stout full length grip, but if you aren't going to baton one does it matter? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: I had one. It suck compared to esee or buck knives. About batoning, I guess not. Mine was an actual K bar and it didn't seem to keep an edge very well. The coolness factor was off the charts but it never really worked for what I actually mostly use knives for which is skinning and processing game. I usually don't sell knives, even if they are duds, but a co-worker was talking about getting one and I mentioned I had one somewhere I would let him have. He was happy with it and I made a lifelong friend so... |
