Lost my knife

Post by knifetime »

I lost a favorite knife of mine as a youngster and would love to find one again but I 'm not sure were to start.
It was a OTF auto that was made for the Army.It was green and had USA or US Army on it.It opens and close with a slide button push forward for out and slide back to retract the blade.
If one of you guy's could tell me who made it or what it was called I sure would appreciate it also is this the best spot to post this question?Thanks for any help.

There were no OTFs made for the army-any army.
It sounds like a generic "NATO Military" OTF.

Probably similar to one of the two bottom knives.

Sharper Deals has them for sale every now and then. This picture is from their site. It's a pretty common OTF. If you search Google for them a bunch of options pop up for you ::tu::

Those top two are made in Spain but the time frame fits;I've had those for about 30 years now.They were given to me by a customer of mine whose Mercedes I had pinstriped.He bought them in Spain when he was stationed there in the Navy.
