ATTN: Reeve/Harsey P.S. MOLLE vest knife found at MacKall
This past Tuesday, I was rucking down a road on MacKall and noticed a mud-covered knife near some washed out pavement. I picked it up, threw it in my LCE, and kept going. I remembered today to look up the model, and discovered it probably belongs to a member of this site! The serial number is 0021. If this knife belongs to you (Bill, maybe you know whose it is) please PM me and I will find a way to return it to you. It's a fine-looking knife.

Very good eye's its mine I lost it on sunday went back on monday during the day and couldent find it even knowing where it was lost at, I had used it to cut a fuel line in my jeep after my return line blew off, this was sunday night I must have not fully placed it into the sheath and when I got back to mackall I noticed it was missing  next morning I looked all over for it near the mount city thats where I broke down but with no luck. I figured some stud or another cadre found it or it got pounded into the dirt getting ran over by all the traffic on that road. Viking just called me on the phone I was surprized someone from this site found it and knew what it was.

This thread alone shows what a fantastic site and community this is, not that anyone on here doesn't already know that.
Good eye Misenus and outstanding integrity.

Oh great...here it comes.
Glad to see it is making its way back to the owner. Small world sometimes.

Well done, stud.
You are a credit to the way you were raised.

550 cord and bowlines might keep it from running away... (ducks, hides, and laughs) just like students in the Q course...
