No need to worry about your english. I really appreciate your time in passing that along. I wound up breaking the knife using it for something it was not designed for. I suspect it was of recent manufacture, as it was desert sand color. I have heard the newer ones aren't as good as the older.

More guts than I have, to be stabbing wild boar, I shot one 7 times with a .45 before the darn thing quit trying to kill me here in the states.

I assume your from Austria or Germany, two of the few countries the US Army decided not to send me. That is only because Germany was the ONLY overseas post I really wanted.
