I was shocked when I saw the email from AGRUSSELL this morning saying my order shipped. :eek:
I was like what order is that? :confused:
Then I checked in my account and was like oh man, awesome. :cool:

Should have one of these beauties in my hands soon.
I had to exchange the one I originally received because of a couple QC issues.

Oh man, that's a real beauty Jim :)
Do you care to elaborate about it?
Looks awesome!
Re: What "others" are in the mail?
It's different than the Model #1, a lot different.
The Model #16 Special Fighter goes back to the Korean War when they wanted a Model #16 fighting knife.
So they took the Model #16 (Dive Knife) and made it with the #1 (Fighter) blade.
It has a full tang too, 1/4" full tang.
And the blade isn't hollow ground like the #1 is.
It's a very serious knife.

And it fits my hand perfectly, I have larger hands so I figured it would.
And they are only in stainless too, since the base is the #16 Dive.
