    There used to be two rings, essentially a couple key chain style rings that went on the handle before the storage compartment cap was installed. The rings were for the wire saw. This is why the cap didn't thread all the way on.

    My brother had one of these Rambo knives, I now have it since he didn’t want it. And yes it still has the matches and fishing line in the handle of the compass. It was kept in its sheath so it’s still in good condition and I’m glad I never let it rust. Seeing this restored is awesome!

      This is definitely not a Rambo knife. A lot of people don't know the origins of knives like these but associate them with Rambo because he made it popular. These survival knives came about in WW2, and during Vietnam, someone designed it with a hollow handle to store basic survival things, like matches. The serated part was for sawing through aircraft metal. Pilots were the first ones to have them.

      But I guess 99% of people didn't really think this was actually called Rambo's knife when it came out way before Rambo was a movie.

      I’m a fourteen year old and have one of these knives. It’s quite old, cheap. But I still love messing around with it (as responsibly as possible). The only downside to it is that I haven’t been able to find its sheath and I can’t seem to figure out what the knife is called in order to find a sheath for it. Do you know where I might be able to obtain one?

    Oh my lord that brings back some memories. My brother and I, just barely old enough to drive, took our girlfriends to the drive-in to see First Blood the night it opened, one of the last few weekends the drive-in would be open that year. There was a guy running a stand, just outside the snack bar, selling those knives for $4.50 apiece. Needless to say, a couple strapping lads like us just HAD to have them. That was a bigger number in 1982 than it is today, so the ladies had to split a popcorn and soda. Candy and nachos were of course, right out. We got our knives though. The temporary cold shoulders we received were totally worth it. My Brother Will passed away from colon cancer at 3a.m. on Christmas morning, 2017. I held his hand as he began the next part of his journey. I didn't realize he still had his Rambo knife all these years later until I was helping my teenage nephews and their mother go through some of his things a short time after. I love you, Will. Save me a seat. I will be along soon.

    I am Taiwanese. When I was a child, I once found a small knife in my grandfather's room that looked exactly like it. I thought it was cool and picked it up to play with it, but my grandfather stopped me. He said there was the blood of enemies on this small knife, so it's better not to touch it.

    Another great restoration. Makes me nostalgic. I too had one. I donated mine. I miss it but it was for a good cause.

    I have this knife still, from when I was a kid. There are two "key rings" that fit over the tube before screwing down the top. These are used with the "cable saw" to hold it during use.

    I bought one of these from Sea Port in Manhattan when on a school trip from England back in 1991. The family I stayed with posted it back to me with the socks and pants I’d left! 😂 still have it in perfect condition - with scabbard and sharpening stone.

    Omg I have one of these! Just restored it a month ago. I thought it was an army knife lol. Some people left it behind after an eviction! I painted it black oxide coating and part of the blade as well except for the sharpening edge. To give it that modern tactical look. The only thing missing is the bottom compass cap. Also that metal is hell to sharpen! Wish I could show a picture of it. Wow it’s crazy I stumbled upon this.

    Well done! There is a ring that goes between the screw on top and the handle to fill that gap. Only thing I seen missing.

    Excellent highly skilled work! @14:30 (see the gap) You are missing two silver key rings that fit below the threads on the handle (they attach to the steel cable to cut branches)
