Very nice! But it makes me think could you cut a grove part of the way through the coin and make a friction folder/slippie out of it? Or would it be easier to take 2 coins and grind down the opposite sides and pin a blade in the middle.
Again nice one!

I made it like the originals,just a pivoting blade on a coin.Heres a pic with an original.

That's cool. What is it used for? When you open it up, does the blade stop or does it want to keep going aroung? Thanks

The pin holds it pretty firm,you can cut with it without the blade moving.Id imagine it was made for a last ditch cutting tool that might be missed during a frisking.

[mtnfolk mike]

i sent you an email a few days ago, regarding these OSS coins... did you get it??

 

[heheheq]

That is GREAT, but it looks like it should be being used to slash tires

 

[mstephen]

This is actually the exact usage I done a little research into oss methods

I went to D.C. on my honeymoon and toured the Spy Museum they have there.
They have examples of a bunch of cool small knives.
However, I don't remember one of these.
They did have a small hooked blade, think of a can opener on a swiss army knife that is a sharpened blade, it was used to slash or cut any type of fuel line or cable on a car truck or train.
The operators would be trained on how to get close to targets and use it so that it would slow down the enemy asset yet not be obvious to an observer.

Really neat stuff.
