Own a piece of history. This knife has been tested on the battlefield in countless theaters. The beaches of Normandy, Korea, Japan, the jungles of Vietnam and our most recent engagements in the middle east. What more could you ask for? The steel may not be the hardest (1095) but it can be razor sharp with minimal effort on just a draw through sharpener, exactly what you need in a field knife. The leather handle is beautiful and easy to grip even when wet with blood. I have used this knife to skin rabbits, large game and even delicate trout. I keep it sharpened and oiled and it is always ready for anything I need it for. For those of you who need to baton wood, take a small hatchet into the field and protect your knife, for it is your greatest ally. Buy this knife. It is worth it. Don't waste your time on a cheap clone. Also, if you are "not a Marine" consider it the ultimate homage to carry with you what they have proven is one of the best knives ever made.Read full review
