I have wanted one of these since I first saw my Uncle's back in the 60s. I have two now, one with the original sheath and this one that I made for carry. It balances and is true. The edge holds well and
They are a very deadly fighting knife, good false edge, wide cut, punctures well and has a grip that naturally aligns the edge upwards or down. It's by far my favorite to carry for personal defense. One of mine was made in 64, the other in 72.
A buddy got one of these back in early 1970's. Has served him well over the years! Unlike myself he's not a member of "The Knife Of The Month" club ;>)... and one (along with a pocket folder) does it all for him.
