Sorry! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> I just use that as a generic term for ANY BRANCH OF THE MILITARY! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I am sure this knife will mostly be used for utilitarian needs and opening the insurgent MRE bags.

Soldier, Sailor, Air Force, Marine! You know what they say, SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Therefore endeth my sucking up! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Now you're just trying to delay you death sentence. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

For MOST folks, both in and out of the military, police, what ever, utility uses is what will be done with any knife, MOST of the time. BUT as we all know, there are exceptions to ANY rule.

OH, and Yeah, I'm looking forward to spending many many more happy years with my wife, who would be a poor widow if something, happened to me, Unable to take care of and provide for herself. DO IT FOR HER! (Have I made you feel guilty yet?)

Guilty enough.

I am pretty stoked about this knife. I have been looking at the ratmandu and thinking, "If they would just sharpen the back side it would be perfect."

Yeah I thought the same thing. BUT unfortunately in our stupid court filled frivilous lawsuit society I am sure that NOT sharpening keeps some IDIOT from suing them. But it's still a nice knife though.

If I had to have ONLY one knife, to do everything, I did say ONE knive, THAT might just be it (until Dan comes out with one like that). Utility isn't EVERYTHING, Looks are nice sometimes as well.

It'll be fine where I plan to take it

When you got the looks and utility aspects both covered, it's a match made in Heaven!

It would be fine almost ANYWHERE, if folks wouldn't "flash it" on purpose just to show off! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

It's like anything else. Just cause you got it don't mean you got to flaunt it, possibly making someone feel bad. Like me. I wear a Rolex, and some deputies still don't now it, and I've been there coming up on 17 years in January!
