picked this little extra up

[tmlowe]

for the SHTF bag

http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=90714

For $9 I could not resist. Comes with a small compass, needle/thread, fishing line/hook and some matches. All of the above store in the handle.

Be VERY careful with it I had heard of some one plunging one into there thigh when the tube handle broke off the blade.

Cheaply made products FTL!

I wonder how welding it all together would do...

 

[LACamper]

Maybe even a glob of JB weld inside?
I had one similar to this years ago. The base of the blade narrowed down to 1/4" at the tang, then continued into the handle. The very tip was threaded for an acorn nut. That held on the cheap metal handle, which eventually broke. It wasn't very sturdy, to say the least.

The sheath is a normal soft knife sheath. The inside of it has something like a thin cardboard to keep the blade from catching on the inside of the sheath.

I've got a pair of the harbor freight 36" bolt cutters. I think I could open up a safe like a tin can with those things.

I got one it is worth the money, it will gut a pig/deer etc... with the best of them.

Excellent for the RV too. It's tough enough, sharp enough, and at $7, cheap enough to have a few arround for all sorts of uses.

On a trip to Canada when I had to toss the Pistol at the border, it was a comfort to have. For hunting and Fishing etc...

Actually once I got my "objector" (.32) back, it still rode up front with me all the way home.

I hate to rag on your knife but it really is not something I would trust my life to. When I was in Rangers I bought one and left my issued blade at home. The handle busted off, all the **** fell out in water and the compass cracked. That was day 1 of a 7 day field exercise. I was pissed. Forget any knife that claims to be a "Survival Knife" as most are shody, made in Pakistan junk. Find a knife with a full tang (Made from one solid piece of metal with a handle wrapped around) and call it a day. I would highly recommend any Ka-Bar, Ontario or traditional Buck knife.
