OK. I own an early version of this (first issue). It was designed by Phobis (or something like that?) for Buck, originally. My version DID have a wire cutter on it, that like the old Soviet AK bayonet was use by putting the very stout plastic sheeth's metal protusion through the hole in the blade. It also has a sharpening stone built into the sheeth. My favorite feature of the blade is that it has a built in bottle opener on the guard. It did not have the serrations this on has. I suspect the cutters were dropped because they are not effective and probably easy to cut yourself. A decent pair of cutter would be way better.
It's a decent knife but VERY heavy (in part due to the sheeth). If I had to hump it I would be very tempted to leave it for something lighter. (A swiss army knife or Leatherman?)
cutlery ping!
