Remember these??
« on: April 20, 2009, 09:33:54 am »
Anyone else remember these with much nostalgic fondness? When I was a young lad in the 1980s they were the MUST HAVE coolest thing around. I can't really remember that commercials but it did bring back memories of a 12 year old Pseudo gettin' about desperately wishing he was Rambo.

Yeah...  Those knifes would break if you tried to do anything serious with them...  MOST don't have a proper blade-tang structure to make them solid enough to do anything with without snapping something off (like the blade or handle).

The gnomish survival knife, oh yeah, I remember those.
Everyone but me used to have one of those >:/

For all those times you were run out of town by the local law enforcement, but stubbornly returned, only to be apprehended by the sheriff, mistreated in custody, escape into the wilderness, and pursued by the local sheriff's department, tracker dogs, helicopters, the national guard, and a past that would not let you go... All on the way to the store to pick up some milk. ;)

One of my friends actually had one of those with the tree wire cutter. We tried to cut a 4 inch diameter tree with it. The wire broke on the second pass.

You should read the source book Stallone used for Rambo...  it's much different.

Hey, live for something or die for nothing. That's the way 12 year old Pseudo used to roll.
