## Questions & Answers

**Q: Since glock is made in austria, is the knife as well? or is it made in china like most cheap and dissapointing knives?**
A: As a supplier to the Austrian military, Gaston Glock was making knives, shovels and ammo cans in Austria well before he made 16 prototype handguns and a 17th production model (Glock 17).  I have hard used my Glock field knife by sticking it in things you shouldn't and cutting anything in front of me.  I gave the one I purchased recently as a gift to a heavy machine mechanic.  He actually uses his harder than I have used mine.  I would compare the Glock durability to a Cold Steel product.  The fit and finish of the Glock knife is extremely utilitarian (like the pistols).  While it will not win a beauty competition it will serve you very well.  (P.S.  The shovels are even better!).

**Q: Does this knife come with a matching Glock polymer sheath?**
A: Yes, it did. The sheath holds the knife very securely. I think you will be very happy with this knife, I really like mine, like all things Glock, it is well made.

**Q: Can the knife be turned around in the sheath for left hand carry? thanks!**
A: The knife can be either right or left hand and the sheath can be worn on either side of the body.

**Q: Is the blade metal continous through the handle?**
A: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/958362-Glock-Model-81-Field-Knife-ReviewWith the uses described, it must have a metal tang inside the polymer handle clear to the pommel.  Otherwise you could not do the prying and twisting,described.
