Yes, a test would be interesting......but no "concrete blocks"! I have used this knife a lot but was suprised to learn that the Outfitter line was one of the last series of knives Frank worked on before passing away. This is I am told reflecting in a marked increase in value for these knives and as many will vouch for....in any Army if it is not nailed down everything can go missing....and I would very much mourn it's loss would that to happen.

I have lost my original Kukri and an early Blackjack Maurader to this phenomenon.....Lord knows who has them now....I doubt anyone from my unit but they both went whilst on joint training operations...so I have now lined up alternative options for my kit which will not be irreplaceable or feel like part of my cherished possessions have been knicked!
