I also used to have one of the folding German entrenching tools which was to the Russian one like a Tiger tank to the T34. Incredibly well made ,it included a pick and a shovel with a sharp edge like an axe but weighed like 4 times what the CS did. I sold mine to a guy to strap to his utility quad.


The guy who designs Mercworx knives also makes some cool but much rougher finished knives like this.

He also makes some knives for some of the Sudanese christian rebels. This is a war where there is both wicked hand to hand fighting with knives and fighter jets.
