Its a Vic Hunter supplied to the UK armed forces ( RAF I think and hope to confirm later ) by GQ Parachutes .
Like to say thanks to NKB over at the SOSAK forums . I'm really pleased with this one and wont make the mistake I did before and sell it ::)

That location is a favourite of mine for taking pics of my knives and tools , only about 200 yrds from my house :D

I've seen you use it before, it's so beautiful! (but I'm always tempted to put a shark fin in it ;))

Myself and friends have been known to start a shark rumour in the pub ;)

Thanks for the pic. I didn't realise they had locks like that.

It would be nice to have some of the " models " which often feature in your photos :drool: :D

Just found 3 pics of the Hunter I used to have . The first pics in this thread were facing North , these pics are in just about the same place but facing South .

I wonder what the wooden posts did to Dunc?
all sweet shots boss ;)

Nice one Dunc, just don't bloody sell this one :twak:, I love the old style 111mm, since the OH series, they kinda get overlooked :-\
-
Nice! Def will be after that one.
Def's already got one on the way and turned Dunc onto this one! :D
I can't wait- I traded for one and got a couple of Opinels to boot! :D

That's nice looking. How do you think that little serrated blade would be for all around light duty stuff?
-
It's nice but since the tip is rounded it can be hard to fit it into tight places.
Def
-
The biggest weakness I can see with the big 111's is that the main blade is awfully big and may raise eyebrows if used in a "knife sensitive" place. Having a second smaller knife blade is good for those types of situations.

Fudge'em....
Show them the Vic cross and make fun of them for being candy asses. Who's afraid of a Swiss Army Knife huh? Quick, get behind me, here comes a pack of mean looking boy scouts... :pok:

Scaring and/or pissing off the sheeple is a good way to get knives banned so IMHO it would behoove us to at least think about what we do.

Nice score Dunc!! :cheers:
(a couple years ago before Dunc started using it has a photo prop, the top of that post was smooth and flat!) :D

Giving in to them can also have the same effect. d to the idea that knives are a utility tool and that not everyone that carries a knife is a murderous lunatic, then we'd have less people whining and coming up with restrictive laws!

Got one of those. Sweet ain't they?? ;)

I've often wondred how the gut hook would work as a rescue blade. I feel the non OH 111mm blades could benefit greatly from a scagel teatment.

I remember taking part in a thread about this either on here or over at SOSAK forums :think: I dont think the gut hook blade would make a very good rescue blade as its too short and doesnt lock . It would do in a pinch if that was all you had on you . Anythings better then nothing .

Certainly would make blade deployment faster :)
