Couple Monster fixed blades
Couple Monster fixed blades
Well, one of them’s a monster. Just got these in a bulk purchase, don’t have much use for generic Chinese blades, so I’ll prolly trade them away or something, just thought I’d post some pics first.

Ele! Your top knife is a Rambo III replica, and your faux stag model I have no idea! Still cool monsters though!

Re: Couple Monster fixed blades
Here is my contribution to this topic. However, it is NOT a "Couple Monster fixed blades."
I bought this "M16 or AR15" bayonet in the 1997 to 1999 date range. I bought it new, not used or surplus. I do NOT recall exactly how much I paid for it, but I am sure that it was NOT over $30. It is Chinese made and stainless steel. The front side blade etch says "STAINLESS (over) STEEL" The back side blade etch says, "CHINA" It has a 6" long utility pocket and an attached sharpening stone, which is concealed. I bought it to use when I went camping, but instead it went into storage.
Caption(s), if any, are on the BOTTOM of the corresponding picture(s).

Re: Couple Monster fixed blades
Depending on how you use the description, I have one or a few too large knives. All were inexpensive. The Case Bowie might qualify as a monster. It was $30, as new in box, which is way below their usual price.
While I usually use my too large knives to stab man eating bengal tigers and polar bears, I like them for one practical use: whacking the tails off salmon. A hatchet works slightly better for the tail but the stiff knife is also good for severing the thick spine behind the gill. It's not worth washing both unless you're cleaning a lot of salmon. A cheap-o seems to work as well as any big knife.
The monster Case will probably remain as new for as long as I want to store it.
