RIOT, I think that the service men and women enter a (monthly?) drawing, and :spyder: sends the knives to the winners. I think they can also buy those mili versions on base.

So is he saying that they have military versions of the Native??? I may need to swing by the exchange on my way home tomorrow..

Sorry for causing confusion. I meant the OIF version of the Native, not a Millitary model. That would be interesting, but since many of these Natives live hard lives while deployed, and the fact that our service men and women are underpaid they would probably be too expensive. I have also heard some commanding officers want people to carry smaller knives than that.

Once again, sorry for the confusion.
