Happy Veterans Day, and a heartfelt thank you to all who served. In honor of the occasion, we are digging into our vault to bring this September 1999 Knife World article by Knife Magazine Military Editor Frank Trzaska.
The article also appears in the 2001 book Military Knives – A reference book which is a compilation of our best articles (to that point) on military knives, both government issued and theater-made. It is available from our online store:
Military Knives: A Reference Book by Trzaska, Silvey, Windrum, et al.
