Just curious, have you ever seen a Glock field knife break at the tang?
No, I have not seen that. The tang of this knife is very short and it is the handle that breaks when you try to use it as prybar too hard. As yes, I have seen that happen with mine.
Punching holes in sheet metal is a different subject. The Glock field knife is designed for thrust. The Austrian army has an adapter to use it as bayonet.
Iīm not saying that it is an inferior knife. I just donīt think that itīs up to prying open a car door.
However, if no help can be expected and push really comes to shove - what do you do? Give up altogether because you're not ideally prepared for the job? Or at least give it a honest try to do something about the situation with what you have at hand?
Iīd try an other door first and if that fails, the windshield and the rear window are much easier targets (probably they are already smashed anyway).
