"This is a limited edition that I have been wanting to make for a very long time. This knife has a lot of Marines symbolisms in it: 13 ruby ball bearings for the 13 original colonies, OD green for our uniform color, red handle liners for the blood stripes, blue anodized titanium liners for the dress blues, 7 serrations for the 7 seas. The knives are numbered and feature the "Jack-of-all-Trades" logo on the back of the blade. This logo is used by Marines Reconnaissance to show their versatility in air, land and sea. There are many different versions of this logo from Companies to Platoons; I have had this one since I was in 4th Recon." Blade Steel: .150 Stainless Steel @ 58-60 RC"
