Hollow rivet on a 1976 soldier?

[pthycrpg]

Did you ever wonder why one of the rivets on the 1961 model Swiss Army soldiers knife was hollow? Go to the link and skip ahead to 21.15 to 21.40 and watch how the hollow rivet on the issued soldiers knife were used. I did not understand a word, but I think you will get the picture of what would happened to an enemy force invading Switzerland in 1976.
