Alan aked:
Question, is the pilot survival knife still made for government issue? And does it have a NSN ? thanks.
Alan, as far as I know the the old Jet Pilot knife is still in inventory however it was succeeded by the newer ASEK. (Aircrew Survival Egress Knife)
See: https://ontarioknife.com/fixed-blades/tactical2013-09-03-16-56-57/a...
NSN: 1095-01-518-6832
The 499 survival knife is sold on base and still has an NSN: 7340-00-098-4327
When my wife's fiance went through SERE training the knife he encountered was the ASEK.

Yeah, we keep featuring these on the Newsletters and you keep buying them up. Well here they are again and we have both the 4.5" and the 9.5" versions on sale. These are high quality USA made fixed blades and this will likely be the last opportunity to get them at this price....ever.

Thanks, Andrew, for the info. Collectors may appreciate this info also.
I asked and got a pretty short story about the Trench Knife. After Camillus closed, we ended up with the equipment used for that pattern.
I guess the box was a nice touch, but the contents were the main thing, so to speak.
Well, from my initial inspection, I'm impressed, from the packaging of the knife, the fit and finish and quality of the materials is spot on. I hope to never have to review this as to how well it performed of course. I know it is a short review and the pics may not be the best, but it's the best I can do at the moment. In shot, I am well satisfied.
