This knife and a scabbard I made early in my naval career and I carried it throughout my whole time aboard the LCI 222. I got to where I could throw it at a coconut tree and hit a target the size of a quarter from a good distance back.  I thought it might come in handy sometime but fortunately I never needed to test my skill.  The aluminum in the knife came from an old air plane that had crashed on one of the islands we went to and the leather was some surplus leather from aboard our ship.  I can't remember where I got the blade but I put it all together.  I felt it was quite an accomplishment
