With all due respect, who is throwing gratuitous rocks Jack? Let's compare ......

I merely presented a case for the excellent condition of the knife and sheath, which one would presume precludes it from any real hard use or exposure to the elements by an Air Force veteran, hence my 10,000 ft statement. Yet I am attacked as you state I am posting "fact-less or thoughtless opinions". Wow. On top of that, you question my reading comprehension.

Lastly, you inexplicably throw the casualty rates of "pilots" in Viet Nam into the equation, and I am still trying to wrap my head around that one.
