The greenish blue that is on the staples is a poisonus compound that can form on brass, copper or bronze, some call it green rust. The technical name is verdigris. I used a wood toothpick , stiff toothbrush, and masking tape to remove the verdigris from several  Jet Pilot Survival Knife leather sheaths. 

Hey Hammer, I got tired of all the miss information and miss direction. I went looking for a site that could give me the nuts and bolts of what just happened and how they did it with out hype or opinion. It calls out what Iran did right and how that was countered. In short it looks like Iran planned well for a war. The failure was they thought we were going to fight that war. We are not doing that As Pesian Gulf said nothing is mentioned about "Eyes in the sky" in any detail, but itis covered. This site also covers unconfirmed ships in play. How the first 40 minutes played out was very interesting. That was when Iran lost. Sleep well, all is good.                                David

You already sold them recently and now you want to know how much they should've gone for?

Found this in a shop in Switzerland. I was wondering if they are real!     

Most likely this is what you have in an exploded condition:    

Hopefully that's true and this is over soon....

Sold these recently. How rare are these and what could they go for? Thanks! 

Great group..  love the Marine Corps stuff.

Mmmm, maybe a different word like falling would sound better, but no one can say they are on the rise or they are holding thier own or have reached a stalemate. The truth is they are bleeding out. Nothing changes that. Iran fell at the beginning. Kind of like a guy who has a fatal wound but keeps fighting, They have nothing more to loose. The clips explaine this. Give them a view,they lay out everything.

This Is considered second generation with that spacer configuration and blade grind .
