The legendary Ka-Bar was basically a large hunting knife in the Bowie style that was already in civilian use before the Marines adopted it. The knives were used for a lot more than just fighting, but they worked well for that, too. I see the Ratmandeux as that type of knife, but a bit smaller and a lot tougher.
Well said, and much more polite than my comment. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />
