Field testing the 1911 Combat Survivor on Kodiak Island

[Mark Knapp]

For those of you that are not familiar with it, the 1911 Combat Survivor is a hollow handled survivor knife based on the 1911 Colt Auto. You can carry an extra magazine for your 1911 in there or you can carry the survival magazine that has a sharpening hone, a Leatherman Micra, a ferric-magnesium fire starter, synthetic sinew, fish hooks, needles and an LED flashlight. If you would like to read about the field test, please visit my blog at this link,

Here are some I just completed.

Thanks for looking.

Interesting. Frag grips would be nice on them too.

Thanks, we are considering which custom grips to make.
