Did anyone else grow up in the 50's using one of the Imperial sheath knives? I used to get one of these soon as I could earn the money during the summer from the time I was about 7 on. They took some extremely rough treatment and by the end of the summer the handles were usually broken and taped up.

A while back I decided that I needed another with better steel and handle material. I just got through with my version. It has a CPM 3V blade and micarta handle. I think this one should last me since I don't throw knives or make spears out of them any more. Well almost never anyway.

This is one of the originals and my version...
