I ran across this same model knife at a gun show recently. The blade folds sideways into the handle.
It was slim, but had a nice heft and fit well in your pocket.
Obviously I don't want anything with Nazi markings ( although seeing 'China' etched below the swastika was amusing ).
I attempted to search for a quality maker of this style of knife, but I am at a loss as to what to call it. I googled side opening knife, sideways opening knife, flip out knife, with limited success.
The fact that this was sold as a German Fallschirmjager reproduction was irrelevant to me ( I simply liked the design ), but I searched several WWII German military sites just the same, and came up with nothing.
Anyone know what this type of knife design might be called?
