Default Jeep Knife

Thought I would pass this on a 15" Jeep knife at big 5 for 12.99

FYI, this is local only. I called the # on the site and they do no online or phone orders.

I haven't ever heard of Big 5 Sporting Goods so maybe its a "out west thing"

Sucks too, I'd like one of them

edit: buy.com has em for $25

I have one, too. It was a gift and now sits on my desk next to my computer--I've camped thousands of nights, Jeep camping and backpacking, and have not found this to be very practical for anything but show:

Doesn't look very sturdy. Is the other side laser etched made in china? For that price I'd bank on it. For pretty cheap you could get those listed below. I've had the usaf survival knife for about 17yrs and I abuse it pretty much. And for you ADAF guys see if the tool crib has a laser etcher and give it some jeep customazation Did it with my Zippo made it an HK USP zippo.

No. "Handcrafted in China." LOL. But, do you have a Trail Rated snap fastener on your laser-etched knife?

I guess if you are gonna have a Jeep, Chineese knockoff, it may as well be an M9 fake.



With a trail rated snap fastener.
