Sam, excellent work.
I recognize the Tomcat sticker from working college summers at Grumman Aerospace in Bethpage, NY

Luna, I know the exact scene you mean.
Veg, funny thing is, this box came from Grumman in Bethpage. My Boss's Father gave it to him, then I traded my boss for it. Small world! You still around Long Island?

Sweet baby Jesus, Sam. She turned out beautiful! I'd be proud to use that knife for sure.

That's a good scene. For the love of god just tell the poor guy your name!
Anyway, very nice dagger. It reminds me a bit of one of those WWII Fairbanks stilettos, though not so dainty.

My first impression of this piece seems to be right in line with everybody else's: hell of a trench knife. One I'd love to have in my hand, one I'd be terrified to see in the other guy's hand. I want one...

Really dig the blade Sam. Not much into lathe work (don't own one:) Wondering where it balances?

Yeah Dan, that's it I always liked the basic design. I remember reading a long while ago (and I've no idea if it's true or not) that American GI's weren't fond of them because they would break when they used them to open cans. Or something along those lines. I like the blade design on Sam's better though. In the video it looks like it balances a bit behind the guard.

This might be my all time favorite dagger.
