Garcia survival knife

 
  • 1 of 19
 

Garcia's Survival Knife was a copy of the Hackman Survival Knife, which was developed in response to a shortage of Randall 18 knives in the late 1960s. The Hackman Survival Knife was designed by Ken Warner and Pete Dickey and was manufactured in Finland. Garcia began manufacturing this knife in Brazil after Hackman stopped production. Garcia's knife had the same shape but was lighter with a 3/16" thick stainless steel blade instead of Hackman's ¼" thick blade. It was manufactured in Brazil and included a sheathed survival kit with a whistle, compass, whetstone and flint. As with the Randall 18 knife, the handle was hollow, waterproof and had space to store other survival items such as fishing line, hooks and matches, although many Vietnam vets also used this space for various pills.

    Lightly used M1967 USMC Combat Field Pack. Year of manufacture 1970. Very nice condition. Rubber collar is in good condition..

    The M1967 USMC Combat Field Pack nylon pack was designed by the Marine Corps Airborne Forces Development Center as a replacement for the M1941 Haversack.1 The design of the pack evolved from the experimental XM1964 Haversack and featured two external pockets in addition to the main storage compartment, which had a waterproof rubberized collar. The top flap had two side strap hinges and one in the middle for attaching a blade carrier.

    When matching USMC M1967 straps were used with the gear belt, the pack was worn on the back by attaching the top loops to the shoulder hooks of the straps and connecting the pack carabiners to the carabiners on the straps. Alternatively, it could have been worn as a backpack by connecting the front and back sling straps to the D-rings on the bottom of the pack.
