Those'll work.

I have to admit, I like having options. lol

Every knife in that pic except for the navy mk 3 I aquired for under $20.

Hey! Does anyone know where I can get a replacement retainer for that Eternal dive knife? You used to be able to pick one up in any dive shop, but no one seems to Carry them any more. The knife is still in production. By Valor now. They didn't even change the box. Another cool note about that knife- You used to get a G.I. Joe sized copy with the Frogman G.I.Joe back in the 70's. I guess I'm showing my age lol.

Garage sales, flea markets (but you will probably get a knife with it an have the same dilema) Somebody posted, and there are a few good videos on youtube about making your own kydex sheaths - could probably do something similar with plastic.

Most were just pieces that struck my fancy at the moment that I purchased them. The Randall was offered to me at a unbelievable deal ( $45 and the Isotoner driving gloves I was wearing at the moment ), The diving knives were for a specific purpose ( I scuba dive ), and the Schrade Walden skinner was my Grandfathers.

I have a new in box Valor incarnation of this knife I have never used. For $14.95 I bought another to keep in storage in case the knife was discontinued and my current one was broken etc. I think you are right about making a kydex sheath for it. I have been reading up on it and it seems easy to do though I haven't tried yet. When I do I will post pics.

Looking forward to them.

Does anyone know about USA Saber knives? I saw one here in a military surplus store. It has about a 4 inch blade. Most knives here of supposed named brands are counterfeit, but I think this one may be genuine. It is fairly cheap and is nice looking survival knife.

**crashdive123** · 03-14-2009, 07:49 PM

If you are talking about one of these while they look interesting I do not think they are probably considered a "good" knife. Their own description says decent quality. But hey, for less than 8 bucks.....

**chiangmaimav** · 03-15-2009, 11:31 AM

Crashdive Thanks for photos, but the one for sale here is much smaller and has about a 4 inch blade and what looks like a rosewood handle.

**crashdive123** · 03-15-2009, 01:49 PM

If you like it, and since it costs under $10 what could you be out? Other than the $10.

Those are in the S.M.K.W. catalog all the time. I am sure that they are made in Asia somewhere so that one could easily be for real.
