I was in US Autoweapons today and saw they added another section to the ever growing SF collection. This is the same shop that sell the USM4 brand and everything USM4 has the SF Crest on it. I bought a few lowers (Found out later to be either POF or Hogan....I forget which because both companies trashing the other). I asked if this was legit back in a previous post and while opinions varied slightly, the final word was they were authorized and legit.
They now have vitually a window museum with baseball hats, berets, photos, etc. I have never heard any employee there claim any affiliation with SF or even the Army.
Now they are selling a new line of knives honoring Col Roger Donlon and SSG Robbie Miller. "Special Forces Association in conjunction with Mark Hazen Knives is proud to announce the new Legion of Valor Series of USM4 Combat Knives".
While I think it's great to honor these men, I can't get anyone working there (Incuding the owner) to explain their affiliation with SF. I only know the names of a handful of knife makers and Mark Hazen may be the second best in the world for all I know, (Mr. Harsey being #1 of course), but something just seems odd. These knives are also expensive and no mention yet of any proceeds going to any SF organization.
I could be the idiot here if it has already been discussed, but I couldn't find anything using the search function.
I'm hoping this is all on the up and up, but I wanted to point it out just in case it is not. I'll include a link but they only have one listed, the Miller version is also currently available in store. TS, I know you are on the other side of town, but I live right down the street if you want more pictures or anything.
