Before They Made Guns, Glock Made Knives

A short interesting off the wall Glock article including a brief history:

Before They Made Guns, Glock Made Knives :: Guns.com

A key early contract for Herr Gaston Glock, two years before the inventor would submit his prototype pistol for review, was for a polymer-handled field knife.

IMO the Glock knife 9both versions) rnk right up there with the USMC KBAR as one of the best all-around miiitary knives.

I have and use both versions when going into the field.

I’ve used one for years (non sawtooth), and Yes they are functional, practical, well balanced, and space-saving (slimline sheath design). Kabar might be a better all around utility knife, but not by much.

They look really nice. Have never seen one before!
Thought was a good article. Always appreciate a good knife!

Good all around knife, and hard to beat at that price point. Their Shovel Tool is a great addition to your camping or bug out pack.

Thanks! Nice package!
You're definitely right on shovel. Looks good and saw would come in handy too. Better than separate ones.

I’ve got a few of them, both varieties, in a couple different colors...

I just want a bayonet attachment so I can use it on my AUG...

I bought a couple of Glock knives years ago and they were very sharp right out of the package. I've actually never had to re-sharpen either of them, light use on both, but they've kept an edge very well over the years.

Think I may buy one. Prices look good for field knife for the ATV.

i was thinking glock only made paperweights. Good to see they had sold foundations before that

 

[KillerFord1977]

Went ahead and bought a black one and kydex sheath.

thanks for the link
