21st Century trench knife

I made some knives for a guy I met who was in the Army. Soon I was making some blades for his buddies and when they were to deploy I was blessed with getting a large group of them looking for steel. He, Alex, asked if I could make a 1918 trench knife but make it more modern and small enough to possibly put on the end of a rifle. (I did laugh at the rifle part) They were going to Afghanistan and he said he wanted something that if it hit the fan, any which way he swung it it could cause damage.

They called it the "cave knife". It is 3/16" D-2 and dual stainless steel D guard. Black canvas micarta and whole thing bead blasted. The pic is from his tour overseas. Thankfully no one had to use it to defend themself.
