Good times,

Actually we use the stick and nail as a last resort for for students during CQB. First safety violation we take his weapon away and replace it with a Sims Gun. If he continues to pose a danger to himself and those around him we take the Sims away and issue the stick and nail.

I actually constructed this device in Indonesia and briefed the Students for it's purpose. They thought it was pretty funny. But they were shit hot so they could afford to laugh at my Stick and Nail. They hung it on the wall after the course.
Those were some of the best Students I ever trained. The guys from Bali were the best. They were squared away hard charging troops. But they all had that laid back Surfer attitude.

Back on track, what can we do to convince USASOC to release more Harsey Yarborough Knives to past graduates? Obviously they have them for new graduates. But what is their reason for not allowing past graduates to buy them anymore? Did they catch people selling them or buying more then one? Why the limited run?
It's special because only SF can have one. But thats not entirely true. In reality not all SF Soldiers can own one. Just the ones who were in a position to buy one. I'm taking my stick with a nail and going home
