I am not a big fan of Cold Steel.
The odds of a soldier today getting into a knife fight with the enemy are about the same as winning the lottery. The odds of him injuring himself with it are much better.
I do not believe that you are a soldier yet. I would focus on mastering your issued equipment and the 25 meter target once you are. You will not be permitted to own a large knife in the Army for a while.
Why are the people who start posting the quickest seem to learn the least? Have you searched and read the other important threads here, and become bored?
And listen to NDD, he knows things. Well, except about my mood. I am one of the nicest guys you would ever want to meet here.
