Who else has one of these and what do you think about it? Do you actually carry or use it? Do you ever see any for sale? I don't have any photos now but maybe tonight I will.

Never saw one carried in RVN. There were plenty of AF Survival knives, Kabars, Gerber MKIIs, Bucks and Randalls. I do not like knives with round grips. They don't naturally index in the hand.

Brazil, just like the one on Ebay with sheath and stone/compass. Mine is in much better condition and was $110.00 shipped.
I haven't sharpened yet but I did clean it up a little. I wish I could get the existing scratches out. Not sure what the steel makeup is but it has a lot of stainless and is already sharp but nowhere near what it will be after the wicked edge gets done with it. The blade is 3/16" thick.
