I hit every pawn shop in my area any chance I get now. It pays off every once in a while!

They advertised it as a grappling hook as well as like to anchor down supplies under water when the navy seal was hiding. That’s what I been told. But it pretty much was a gimmick Buck made in the 80s when they had the military contract but lost it because the knife was to heavy so seals complained

Grappling hooks???!!! Really?

That's the stupidist thing I've ever heard.

ETA: Comment directed to Gerber Buck (oops!) or whoever the idiot is that thought that "idea" up - not Kev.

I get you and it was Buck. That’s why they lost their military contract.

That's odd a fixed blade has pocket clip threads and the word auto on the blade

That has me nostalgic for the Buck 189 intrepid tanto that I bought in the 90s. My friend immediately dubbed it the "death to all mankind knife". It had a defect and I ended up getting my money back rather than a replacement.
