Harbor Freight Rambo Knife?

[rOmiLaYu]

Anybody have any experience with this knife? It was $9 so I know what I already know. I removed the blade and slathered the handle and "tang" with JB Weld already. That seems to be a common mod. I have a thing for hollow handle knives. Anybody else have one or used on? The spine saw is sharp, I cut my hand on it. The blade, however, will need some work. Anybody?

Those things have been around forever, I used one in survival training just to see how well it would do. The blade snapped off immediately. I ended up having to use my Kabar

I’ve had a couple for many many years. The tang is super short, less than an inch and pressure fit into the aluminum handle. As large knives go, that a high stress joint. If you really baby the thing meaning don’t use it, it’ll hold up. Even moderate use that joint will eventually snap, jb weld or no

It’s for show, not for go

I recently scored an OKC Air Force survival knife from a member in Griffin. I dig it since it's not as big as my Ka Bar Marine Corps Issue knife given to me by another damn good member about 10 years ago.

Does it have a compass in the base of the handle?

If not, it's a knock-off.

That's why the handle is aluminum. To not throw off the compass.

What grade steel is it?
