Thank you for being civil.
Also, I did not lie about my location. I live just south of Macon in Georgia, perhaps my ISP is located there or I get routed through to there. The only reason I PMed you is because of my stepfather's firewall.

EXCELLENT RESPONSE MR. SMISSON! Absolutely outstanding!
Now, we can discuss the knife. I have never had one, but I looked at the pictures - it's not for me. For one, since Mr. Harsey and Mr. Strider have educated me, I see blades in a different light.
A knife is a tool, as so eloquently stated above. I don't need a 7" knife for a tool. Anything I can do with a 7" blade, I can do with a 4" blade.
I have also learned that I can get an acceptable tool for $150. For another $150 I can get one I can pass on to my son.
And since I am a grown up now, I don't tend to lose my shit as much as I used to, so I am more inclined to go with quality.
If you do join the Army, you won't need a 7" knife either. I would suggest you get something you can reall use - a Swiss Army Knife or a Leatherman mutli-tool (don't vote for Tim for President).
Better yet, spend the money on running shoes and a chin-up bar. Or take your gurlfriend out to dinner and a movie.
If you just have to have one, save up the money and get a real one.
You asked for an opinion, there's mine.
