The P38's are easier to locate though.
The P-38's have been made by every dog and his brother since the
originals came out.
I have one on my key ring that's over 50 yrs old and another one
ratholed in case this one wears out ! They are made of a high grade of
stainless and very difficlt to sharpen.
A few years ago some canning company included one of the knockoffs under
the paper wrapping on canned sardines. The sardines were inedible and
you could fold the P-38 in half with your fingers. It was good to open
one can !
I'll defy you to bend the one I have in my pocket with your bare hands.
Quality has been on the wane since about 1950 so we really can't expect
much anymore.
