    It's basically the knife below but in CAMO/Green with black serrated blade and the MACV SOG emblem on the blade.

    Ok so I had this knife in the mid 90's maybe got it out of US Calvary.
    I'm REALLY wanting to identify it and maybe find one for purchase.
    This is going to be tough so bare with me ok.


    Here's goes;

    Blade was about 3 inches long,
    Black,
    partially serrated.
    Handle was Camouflaged/woodland I think.

    It MIGHT have been a SOG? I remember seeing some sort of Skull with a Beret on it's head and the emblem was white on the black blade maybe.
    I'm farly certain this was on the blade or handle;
    http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100518202051/callofduty/images/4/40/MACV-SOG.png

    The knife looks and operates OTF (Out the Front) exactly like this one but is
    woodland with a MAC SOG emblem on it,
    Black Blade, partially serrated.

    Video of Operation;

    It DOES NOT open up from the side like most traditional pocket knives.

    The knife worked very much like a Spring Assisted Straight forward knife where the blade comes out of the handle itself. Make Sense?

    So the way you operated the knife was unique.
    The Handle of the knife would twist just a tad to allow thumb button to be pushed forward. The Button was attached to the blade so as you pushed the button forward the blade would extend from the handle. When the blade was fully extended you could manipulate the handle twist back in alignment and it would lock the blade forward.

    To put the blade BACK, all you would have to do is twist the handle back to the unlock and zing the blade would shoot back into the handle. Slide the handle back and it's locked closed.

    I know this is a LONG shot but ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    Any other identifying characteristics you can add?

    Blade length? Type of blade steel? Handle material? Approximate cost? Etc...

    Man I'm exhausted looking for this knife.

    Rarely can I NOT find something on the net, this is just tough. I guess the knife might have been rare.

    I think I still have it, it's just in my Marine Gear some where packed away. Maybe.

    Man I had to go buy one of those Boker-matic's for 25.95 plus 6.00 bucks shipping thats a great deal for a OTF spring assisted I thought.

    We'll remember it's spring RETRACTED really, not assisted IIRC.

    When the blade is out the spring is stretched. So when you shift the handle to the side while the blade is out, it will shoot back into the handle.

    Work your Google Foo on this search how about?

    Well my google-fu is weak. I searched and searched and turned up nothing. But everytime you bump it my curiosity is piqued even more.

    Bastard. :D:D:D
