We thought it would be fun to share some old photos of edged cutlery that we have gathered over the years. If you have any you could submit, just e-mail them to us. We would love to see them. This week it is the U.S. Navy we feature.
A couple of PBR sailors in the Vietnam Delta. They are wearing what look to be private purchase knives. Now that I have said that somebody will tell me they are issue pieces.
