AggieDave 6 #6 February 19, 2011 Well, the Polish are world renowned for their screen door technology on their submarines, so I can only assume that their brittle-single-blade-plastic-hook-knives are just as good!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Martini 0 #9 February 20, 2011 Well you know it's very rare, high performance and modern because the seller has 100% positive feedback. And the 35$ knife is an especially sweet deal with only $12 shipping. The only way it could be more convincing would be a picture of the seller holding the knife while wearing a coat and tie. If the ad's not a joke then it's even funnier. Naturally I too have one of those.......... in my junkpile.Sometimes you eat the bear..............

Probably not, but you might get a nice vacation out of them. Apparently, $4 cheapo hook knives are big medicine to this guy. That, or you might be able to trade him for several of those extremely rare AK bayonets. After all, it's not like they have crates of 'em just lying around the former Eastern Block countries...
