looks like it's big brotherOct 19, 2011
By arlyss this little letter opener is a dead ringer for the real M3 trench knife. It's a handsome addition to my desktop, a daily reminder of my days in the Corps. Semper Fi guys this is a great little product at a good price. This is just one more reason I have to keep shopping at Amazon.Com
a fun novelty itemJul 18, 2010
By David E. Aeh It looks and feels real, but it is only a letter opener. The handle could break if forced really hard. Could be sharpened like a regular knife but material is a bit thin. Like I said it is a good letter opener and novel item.
