Those smatchets are an interesting deal, Col. Applegate let that guy make a few cheap ones with the understanding they wouldn't be advertised therefore not treading on the rights given a major knife manufacturer to mass produce the commercial version. Nothing in writing exists letting him have the rights to the smatchet and I see he's now copying my handle design. I'll deal with this one.
