Clarification on Westy's knife...It was a Model #5 with a "6" inch blade...not 7". When I'm asked this same question by customers, wanting to get a military/serviceman's knife for someone. I recommend the Model #15-5 1/2" because of all you get @ N/C.
* Full, exposed tang construction
* Heavy brass double hilt
* Black or green micarta
* Ambidextrous finger grips
* Wrist thong
* Model "C" sheath
..."&"...The #15 can be mounted, straight-up, inverted or otherwise on a Mae West, pack, etc...
....Just Sayin',
