Soldier knife 1891

Surprised that these are on-sale nowadays, the blades must be longer than 5 cm.

Never tell J-Plod that you are carrying one....

Yikes! 63000 yen!!!

Isn't this illegal to carry?

pawatan: good point, but if the blade is under 5cm it is okay.

Wow! 63,000 yen... Listed on amazon at USD 500.00 with free shipping!

63,000 yen? In this economy? Who are they kidding? Certainly not soldiers.

I got mine during my time in the army. No thanks. It seems at that time they didn't understand what the main useful tool is. Yap... a cork screw!

It will take the Chinese a week to knock out a copy that will be cut just as well and sell for 630 yen.

It will smell like pesticide and fall apart in 2 months...

Junnama...that post gave me a good laugh

what's this thing now about all these old things coming out again? First it was a Jet Airliner circa 1982, now it's a pocket knife from 1891. I gotta look around in my closet see if I find something good.

63,000 yen for a Swiss Army knife? Hee hee!

For 63,000 yen it better come with fork, knife, spoon, a full manicure set and a sexy Swiss soldier!

I use to sell a few of them in our sportshop. So have two more or less normal ones, but the salesman gave me the gift of a MINI one if you can imagine. Guess I will have to dig that up & maker sure all is well.
