I am sorry to say that I just received a belt buckle knife after waiting for it for about 6/7 weeks.
http://www.belt-buckle-knife.com/shop/b ... p-975.html

The loop for attaching it to the belt broke off the first time I tried it on.
I made a new one from a large heavy duty saftey pin (used for a back tag holder), so I does work.
It is backwards/ upside down (or I wear my belt backwards?).
The hook on the back isn't long enough to comfortably hook into the belt.

Made in China, worst POS I have ever found, for $29.95

I have used a "Touche'" Belt buckle knife (by Gerber) since 1984, and lost the knife it's self for a time.
Did find it, but decided to "retire"it.
Man I wish i could find another.

I did recieve a response from their "customer service" lady.
They offered to refund my money.
As I repaired it, I decided to keep it and just complain and P&M about it.

Really too bad about the Gerber Touch'e, wore it a long time and used it daily.
So, anyone else have any suggestions.....................?

RON L here - SERE SURPLUS

OH man, sorry that your Belt Buckle knife buy went so badly? I to, have owned the gerber Belt Buckle and I traded it off before I could and would lose it? LOL I might recomend if your still interested in a quality Belt Buckle Knife a "Bowen Company" they make two basic designs, 1 with a Double edge, and one with a single edge, I have owned Both and strongly recomend them! I wore both whiole I was stationed over sea's and in bad arewa's of the Miffle east! Both are a short blade like 3" but with a firm grasp on the Buckle p[art one could use as a great weapon or for normal cutting uses., they were a bit slow to use, but it was a slond and secure fit to the Belt and no cance of loss, Not sure who caried them, as both mine were either a gift or bought off "Flea bay", hope it works out for ya man?

Hunter, the posted link worked but site said "product not found. I know BUDK advertises a couple different buckle knives in the catalog. They may have more on line. I've never used one so I can't speak on quality but maybe BUDK (search it) would be a place to look. Good luck.
