Warning , Your anal collector reactions may trigger if you continue!
That said NO collector level knives were damaged in this experiment.
Both were highly Bubba'd and damaged. In fact, the Ka-Bar was a blade only. The Quartermaster lost a 1/4" of the tip and had grinder marks on it. Neither had a propper sheath.
Pretty much swapmeet junk.
Leather handle kits are available but why bother, they are never gonna be right.
So, the Quartermaster got laminated wood, and the Ka-Bar got Mesquite and brass.
Just giving a second life to these old warhorses.
