3.99....First off its Vintage WWII USMC issue. The blade is 1/4 inch
thick


So what.. the K Bar is one of the plainest cheap steel knives made... and it
was "issue" as well!

and is only 11&1/2 inches long. As I said its perfect for walking the
fence.
It will hack off a 2" sapling with ease, chop the head off a rattle
snake or copperhead with ease


Mine will do the same... keep it's edge... and not rust!

Yes indeed. I have guite a collection of Knives. Case, Solingen,and
several bayonets, german daggers, and a jap shinshinto wakizash.


Big deal.... I've got Buck, Myerco, Leatherman, etc... plus 6 others that
were custom built. My fillet knife is a custom.... 10 inch blade that is
extremly flexible and razor sharp. My skinning knife is a custom as well....
beautifully crafted and made from the best steel available.


Buckmaster makes good knives, but they should stay out of the anchor
business.


Don't judge the knife based on the pins... you are behaving like Nav if you
do. He waltzed in dissin' my blade with no clue as to what he was talking
about. Where I come from... you can insult an man's wife, cuss his dog...
but don't be ridiculing his knife. We judge people by the sharpness of their
blade.. not sharpness of their tongue

Yeah thats my point. It was form over function. And thats a big zero
on my knive scale.


The knife is all function I assure you! solid, no stupid compass in the
pommel, you can [and I have] unscrew the cap and twist in a nice hardwood
pole for a functional spear.

Real men do not form over function, thats for the Ganzy types.


Function over form is correct... but there is nothing wrong with form if
it's an option.

****... Ive lost more knives overboard than you ever owned... Iceman.


There you go... I know enough not to lose my blade... no wonder you don't
buy the quality!

Hwaaaaaaawk

Patooooeeee


Er-r-r... you got your foot with that... here have a hanky!

No, I don't. Who is Bob Ewell?


Bob Ewell (To Kill A Mockingbird) was the bigoted, red necked, narrow
minded, alcoholic, child abusing, murdering, lying, no count, worthless
asshole who claimed moral righteousness as he accused an innocent man of
raping his daughter just to cover her attempt to seduce a black man. He
also voted for Bush, claiming it was the morally responsible thing to do.

Mr. Ewell seems to have a couple of sock-puppets here.

I hope that I haven't offended Joe and Peter by suggesting that they are
only sock-puppets.

It was a great book and a great movie. I have both. The novel sums up what
is right and what is wrong with people. Neal is a characture of what is
wrong.

Scout, in fact a descendant of the great General Robert E. Lee, in fact, the
courageous and honorable Harper Lee, author of Mockingbird and in whose
honor, my newsgroup persona is named!

Bull****, you will be hacking all day on a 2 inch sapling. Your knife
has neither the weight or proper blade for walking the fence

Yes indeed. I have guite a collection of Knives. Case, Solingen,and
several bayonets, german daggers, and a jap shinshinto wakizash.


Big deal.... I've got Buck, Myerco, Leatherman, etc... plus 6 others that

extremly flexible and razor sharp. My skinning knife is a custom as well....
beautifully crafted and made from the best steel available.


Big Deal, I have bucks, gerbers, case's, soligens, and some hand
folded jap **** that will slice a nats eyebrow a dozen times longways.


Buckmaster makes good knives, but they should stay out of the anchor
business.


Don't judge the knife based on the pins... you are behaving like Nav if you
do. He waltzed in dissin' my blade with no clue as to what he was talking

Navs just a sheep man happy to have a sharp set of sheers, he likes he
his sheep shaved.


Where I come from... you can insult an man's wife, cuss his dog...
but don't be ridiculing his knife. We judge people by the sharpness of their

I gutted and skined a dozen havalenia down on the king ranch without
ever seeing a wet stone, no big deal.



Real men do not form over function, thats for the Ganzy types.


Function over form is correct... but there is nothing wrong with form if
it's an option.

Bwahahahahahahaha

There you go... I know enough not to lose my blade... no wonder you don't

Yeah and you never bent a prop ect.... Bwahahahahah
You got do it to **** up mooron. Ive done it several thousand times so
ever once and a while I deserve a FU.



Hwaaaaaaawk

Patooooeeee


Er-r-r... you got your foot with that... here have a hanky!


Just as long as it has a maple leaf on it OK. Thanks
