Have a great trip.
Here are a couple knives to keep an eye out for.
This one is a auto made entirely out of AK47 parts ,even the spring ,blade ,button and inlay.

This one is not quite as nice but it has a guard and you can see the AK furniture and parts better.

This one is the holy grail of soviet knives. It is the fabled ballistic knife where you can shoot the blade out of the handle.
