"new" GAK?

[cliosguy]

is there a "new" GAK coming, even newer than the OHGAK? is just that i read that somewhere but cant remember where and maybe here i can get a good answer

IIRC, there is a model for Denmark.  It'll be like the OH Parachutist, but with a OH rescue blade replacing the two handed version.

I thought it was Dutch?  DAK

I knew it started with a D... whoops. ^^;

The word is that it will be the new Dutch Army Knife that has the belt cutter.

I am also speculating that there should eventually be a new OH GAK as well with the new hole and lock mechanism, but I haven't seen one yet.

ive seen it, i suppose every OH model will be updated the same way

Haven't heard anything yet.

But if any rumors are true, then I always like to see new designs.

The new DAK will come by the end of the year, that means in a few weeks.
Or better, the first deliveries to the dutch army will be then. But I don`t know if and when it will be available for the public.

But I`ve heard nothing about a new GAK. And I don`t think there will be one soon.
Maybe it was a bit confusing because the new DAK will be based on the OH-GAK. It will look like the OH-GAK but it will have a locking OH-beltcutter-blade instead of the saw. And of course it has the dutch scales, the same ones as on the latest 111mm DAK.

Because the new OH-beltcutter-blade with it`s own liner-lock is a new design, one can speculate the this new blade will also be used in other (civil) knives in the future, maybe in the Rescue Tool or the Parachutist. But that is just a speculation at this time.
