Gambit, A buddy that owns a gun store had got three of the SOG VietNam looking hawks in and I picked one up at cost. I am pretty impressed with it. I cant wait to try it out. Might look at one of those for the wife.

The ones that have the SOD cut out of the blade? Or the fusion

Not the fusion. It is SOGs rendition of the Laguna Viet Nam hawk.

OK, pics uploading...

Anyone know anything about old WWII guns?

My brother found this in a barn.

OK pics are in the FOlder thread, but let's see em here too! lol.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

nice pz. i've been EDC'n mine since it came and i'm shocked at how much easier it is to carry than i expected.

Thanks, can't wait to carry it.

I agree too, I think the stripes are too pronounced.

I love Striders. My budget doesn't.

I dunno, Striders just don't do it for me - too much of a mall ninja-ish feel to them for my taste.

Nice score, interesting locking mechanism, how do you release them?

It's a frame lock. It works just like a liner lock except the entire frame of the knife closes under the blade. Also, the tigher you grip the knife, the more secure it is. It is my favorite lock.
