Just sayin... but if I got stabbed with that blade, I wouldn't be worried about the .22 round getting shot in as well. The Blade's more than enough.

That's like taking a wrecking ball to a building, and then also throwing a bowling ball at it for good measure :smilelol5:

The Kiowa Edition is a beautiful knife.

Wouldn't that be an NFA item? AOW?

I think you have it backwards.
I would use the 22 first (Longer range) and if the person were dumb enough to keep coming I could use the knife as backup.
Come to think of it, weren't the early firearms this way?
One shot then you use your weapon as a stabbing tool?

Musket with bayonet

As a modern version, maybe someone should make a single-shot 12ga with a bayonet mount,
or I suppose there's always DIY with a kitchen knife and hose clamps (or duct tape.) "rlol"

I like the fact that the newer knives are made in .45 ACP with sleeves that can change caliber down to .380. I have no idea as to how this knife functions as a shooter, but I can imagine that it is a bit awkward to aim and control with a larger caliber. It's just point and shoot, as I don't see any sights to speak of.
It's not a bad idea for a dispatch weapon while hunting, and as a one shot defense for a hunter/camper. At 12 inches OAL and 20oz. :shock: I wouldn't think to carry this as a CCW myself. It would be easier for me to just pack my Glock and a couple of spare mags than trying to conceal this knife.
If I had the chance, I'd buy one just to have it. There's nothing wrong with the idea, and I can see it as a functional tool for use on a limited basis. I'd like to see one of these in .410 for taking care of snakes while hunting/camping. Just my .02 at least :tiphat:

I think those were evidence photos from Sheriff's department that confiscated the knife found on a felon. At least that is what was on the original PowerPoint that I got from a buddy where I first found out about the knife.

How do you eject a spent case?

I read a review that said you have to manually extract the spent case by hand, or with the use of some type of a ramrod. :???: It seems like a simple extractor would at least be incorporated into the design to make grabbing the spent case easier. :banghead:

That makes sense. Thanks! :tiphat:

I noticed it was Serial Number 117. I guess they sold a lot of them. :roll:
