Let's see your old Miller Brothers ! :mrgreen:


I've only had two cheapies. NATO knives !

They came in a package deal, and I got rid of 'em both for 20 bucks.

If it's meant for me to have it, it'll still be there.

Here is an Anton Wingen Jr. The knife is almost identical to the Eickhorn in every way. The length, width, rivet placement, button, and trap door. The only thing different is the bail, kinda makes you wonder who was really making these? ::shrug::


knife7knut,

Nice collection you have there! ::tu::
