Hmm, this is a little like the Airforce survival knife. It's a bit shorter, and rather than serrations there are smaller saw teeth, but still nice. And cheap lol.

http://www2.knifecenter.com/item/ONSP2/ontario-spec-plus-2-air-force This is generation two, which is much more a consumer product
http://www2.knifecenter.com/item/ON499/ontario-499-air-force-survival-knife This is the normal version, which is assigned to the Air force.

There are a few more exactly like it, but aren't much good. Mostly UnitedCutlery junk lol.

There's no break, there's no end, just a-living on;&&Wide awake, with a smile, going on and on.

Reply #2 - Feb 29^th, 2012 at 8:06am The Rambo knives are pretty close. If you start looking at bowie knives with blades 10in and above you are most likely going t find some look alikes. The best bowie companies I can think of off the top of my head that would make a knife similar to that is Ontario Knife Company.

A list of sawbacks.

IMHO, only the Airforce Survival Knife or the 2 versions of the ASEK (

ir Crew

urvival and

gress

nife aka the Army's copy if the Air Force Knife) are close to being useful tools.

Massi - WTF? It's called a sling. You use it to throw rocks farther and faster than you could otherwise. That's all.

Reply #4 - Feb 29^th, 2012 at 8:36pm I have only one bowie and its a cheap winchester bowie with an 8 inch blade, i like shorter blades, the bowie is wicked sharp and unwieldly, thats why i like shorter knives more useful.

The Ontario ASEK has only a 5 inch blade, a pretty good size if you ask me. If you want a slightly slimmer blade with better fit and finish, go for the SOG SEAL

Reply #7 - Mar 13^th, 2012 at 5:31pm I had an ASEK knife issued to me in afghanistan- I left it behind and carried a recon tanto instead. The ASEK knife blade was just too short for my liking. Well built- solid and heavy (couldn't hammer with the pommel of the tanto, but- rocks were available for that), but, too short to be an "all-around" knife.

Check out Tops knives at the high end, and Condor knives at the low (in price only) end.
