Book

The reference book is titled "Deutsche Kampfmesser". I bought my copy from Frankonia in Munich. Quickly thumbing through it last night while trying to get the twins in bed, I noticed only the WWII, and the first two post-war versions. the LL80 was conspicuously absent. I sometimes wonder if the LL80 was actually issued or just something proposed like the Eickhorn combat knife designed in the 1980/90's...

Periodically the gravity knives are offered for sale on egun.de, searchword "kappmesser"
