Glock FIeld Knives

[PathfinderJr3325]

Considering buying one. Any feedback on quality/ durability?

DONT BUY ONE.

I have two of them, both bought in austria, and they are terrible. While Glock makes one of the best handguns ever, they also produce one of the worst knives ever. Let me explain.

The blade is wayy to thick, yet not that deep, making it very awkward to handle. The sawback is absolutely useless because the teeth are too large and not honed, the handle twists easily in your hand and becomes very slippery when wet. The steel is of a terrible quality, it's so dull it cant be used for anything and it's hard to sharpen, too. It also appears to me the blade is rolled (!!?) steel rather than cut/honed. The sheath is a joke : clumsy, without any effective way of attaching it to web gear (austrians wear it inverted on their flakvests in some way) and, believe it, you need TWO hands to take the knife out. This is because of a tense plastic membrane gripping into the handle that needs to be pulled outwards for the knife to be drawn.

In short : this thing is a horrible excuse for a knife and not even worth thinking about.

Seriously...
