Russian Paratrooper drop knife
« on: June 03, 2022, 08:05:23 PM »
Happy Friday every one....Picked these up a little bit ago and thought I would post them to see if any one knows any info about them?  Trying to figure out when they were made.  Afghanistan era?  Kinda excited to get them in the collection.

Very cool!  8) thumb1

I don’t know much about them. Knife for cutting parachute harnesses, lines and other things. Used by the VDV (Воздушно-десантные войска, ВДВ), aka airborne troops. Not sure about a model number or era of production.
