How Glock Made the Perfect Knife
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มิ.ย. 2024
- Most Glock fans only know the Austrian brand for their polymer framed 9mm handguns- but in the late 1970s, Gaston Glock manufactured all kinds of plastic goods. One of those items was the Glock Feldmesser 78- a fixed blade combat knife submitted to a competition held by the Austrian government. The special forces were so impressed by Glock's genius design that the Glock 78 knife became the official service blade of the military- and it's still being used today

HORSE CUM... their someone had to say it.
Their Field Shovel was an innovation with its telescopic polymer handle as well.
Same with their Snow Shovel. I've never cleared my driveway so fast with such ease
@@charliebrown4799 I couldn't find any information, out of curiosity, about that product.
@@charliebrown4799 uh any chance u could link their snow shovel? i never knew they made one
@@plmkoo6772 shit that was damn near 40 years ago when I bought it. And I think they discontinued it but I'm not 100% sure on that...
I have one! It’s fantastic.
This knife has bypassed inflation. I remember paying around $30-40 over 10 years ago. And it’s still about that price. It’s great to see that a European made knife like morakaniv or Glock and some others still selling absolute quality for the common man.
most of the inflation these days is just corporate greed. places like walmart, pepsi, kelloggs etc are raking in near record profits. pepsi and coke both intentionally raised their prices just to see how much people were willing to pay. coke hit their limit a while back, that's why it's always on sale in most places. pepsi hit their limit, too, for that time frame, but have another "modest" increase planned for 2024. a lot of great value stuff is only maybe 10% less than the brand names.
@@HerculesEinstein I mean, I remember that like 12-13 years ago a 2 liter bottle of coke was 2 euros in my country. Seems like that was a bit high (salaries were also quite a bit lower than today) so the price dropped slowly, then around 10 years ago it reached ~1.3 euros and stayed there for a while. Then it started growing again and reached 2 euros, even a bit higher at a point, and it is currently usually about 2-2.3 euros. But anyways, I think your point definitely stands, because they basically had dropped the price from 2 euros to 1.3 in a matter of a couple of years, and they were still making money. As I've said, salaries in my country today are much higher, so the 2 euro price is certainly a lot more justified than it was 13 or so years ago, but still the fact that back then they were able to drop the price by a third just shows that their margin is huge enough that they can do that and still make money.
@@HerculesEinsteinI don't need Coke or Pepsi, I do need fuel, seed, and fertilizer. Devaluation of currency has ramifications.
Holy shit, sold.

I'm an FM 81 guy. That saw comes in handy and yes, I absolutely use this as a bottle opener. My tan one has been with me since Afghanistan and on every adventure since. I have an OD green one that is on standby.
Are they really that good? I got one awhile back because it was cheap and figured it couldn't be worse than a morakniv, but if they hold up the way I hear everyone say I'm glad I got it
@@Thoroughly_WetIf they are “really that good” lies in the eyes of the owner. All I can say about them is, that they are really really really durable. In Austria and Germany we like to say that they are little “pry bars” - that’s how tough they are. (when they bend, you bend them back - thanks to the more “soft” steel). now they are not great at holding an edge when abused all that much but that doesn’t really matter anyways, as it will still puncture your counterparts ribcage with ease, thanks to its dagger like shape. perfect for dispatching animals and humans👍🏼🍺
I have an 81, but I can't see how you can open the handle? Does the cap pop off? I tried but don't want to break anything.
I got one of those FM 81s as a gag Christmas gift from my buddy almost 10 years ago. That thing is my go to knife. Fantastic little thing.
I have to disagree I’ve seen them been torture tested and they didn’t preform well.
The blade snapped when used to baton wood.
Dad got me 1 in the late 80's served with me in the military from 92-05 till retired for wounds in 08. Still with me on my mantel. The blade is a lot thinner from blade to spine from years of use and sharpening. One of my sons carved his name on the sheath. Some minor pitting close to the tang from it being neglected by my 2 boys over the years but they both had great years of service from it, blazing trails in the woods and making forts. Lasted longer than my paracord wrapped Randall bowie that I got as a gift from my 3rd RGR Bn Sqd leader in 95 . It broke chopping palm fronds in Fallujah in 2004...lol
My Favorite Glock. And favorite fixed blade.
Thank you for this amazing story
Does Randall not repair/replace if it's broken? figure shelling out that much for a blade would come with some service
@@jc4jax I'm sure they do. At the time after it broke it became useless kit and I wasn't going to hump it around while clearing buildings. I left it where it fell. Blade snapped off at the brass tang.
It would be the only glock I'd consider owning. I just hate the look of glocks. Feels like I'm shooting something out of modded minecraft.
cool hearing stories like these

Glock 78 my Favorite EDC for throwing :) Nice video
I was going to call BS on EDC for throwing. Then I saw who it was... Checks out completely. Love your work.
Clicked on this video to see if I could find you in the comments. I was not disappointed

I believe that.
@@LucasJRice I don't believe you believe that, believe it or not.
Did you stab some goat herders?
The tip breaks off too easily when you actually use it.
Because the army won't send you real high-end goods
Ive had the 81 since I was in high school and my buddy’s dad gave it to me. Had no idea it had such a history. Thought it was just a little random thing from Glock. Awesome
There are a few things I want to add:
• To my knowledge, the Glock 78's perfect balance was not a lucky coincidence, our Austrian special forces explicitely wanted it to be that way.
• The 78-model (without the saw) is classified as an actual combat knife, while the 81 (with the saw) is not, because the “Haager Landkriegsordnung 1905” (Hague convention of 1905) forbids toothed blades, because the wounds they cause are too terrible. So if you want to stab somebody in a war, use the 78. Using the 81 would be a war crime.
• The blades are made of “Federstahl”, spring steel. The reason is their flexibility (they bend, but do not break), and the fact that they can be sharpened with basically a wet pebble picked up from the ground - a sharp blade can be the difference between life and death in a survival situation. Spring steal however is not stainless, so they are prone to rust. But rust is something you can deal with, a broken blade is a different story.
• To my knowledge, there are Feldmesser variants only available for the military, stamped with the Austrian military's emblem, which are of a reddish hue, which comes from phosphor-treatment. This keeps the blade's qualities intact, but protects it quite well from rusting. Because this treatment makes the blade non-food-save, it is used only in the military. At least this is what I heard. Since I am a civilian, who has never been in the army, I have never seen such a knife.
• To my knowledge, the knife's capability to open bottles is intentional. This is a universal tool for soldiers to feed themselves in any thinkable situation. From butchering an animal to cutting cheese, opening bottles,… This is as survival-knife in one of its purest incarnations.
And:
• You should have talked about the sheath. It is one of the best sheaths of any knife I have ever seen. It keeps the blade as dry as can be, protects the wearer, and is as sturdy as can be.
Its not a saw!
That hague convention didn't ban saw toothed blades, that's a myth. They just fell out of use because saw blades on the back of knives weren't all that functional so they eventually fell out of use and just fizzled out of service. The exception to this was Germany during WWI who still had saw back blades issued to their soldiers so Allied powers like Britain started a propaganda campaign around it to put them in a worse light.
Germany eventually dropped them from standard issue mainly because the saw teeth kept getting caught in the thick layers of wool and canvas that soldiers wore at the time. So German soldiers would often lose their knives or get killed because they got stuck at a bad time. It just wasn't worth the extra work to make or risk when a unit could keep a dedicated saw in their packs instead.
@@CollinMcLean - It is article 23, point e of said convention, that especially forbids, and I quote, _“arms, projectiles, or material calculated to cause unnecessary suffering”,_ - and if you get stabbed by a blade with a toothed back, this is exactly what happens. I also tried to find primary sources (Heeresdienstvorschriften or something, both historic or contemporary) that supports either of our claims. What I can tell you with absolute certainty is that the Feldmesser with a straight back is in fact part of the Austrian military's equipment, while the one with the saw back is not, and I have been told that the Hague convention is the reason for it, which very much makes sense. For a possibly definitive answer we'd have to get our hands on primary sources. Ask a historian, maybe?
Doesn't make sense that they'd want it to be able to open bottles and intend soldiers to use it to butcher animals and feed themselves if the coating isn't food safe.
@@iunnox666 - I do not _know_ this, I _have been told_ that this kind of coating exists, so unfortunately, this has rumour-status here. Second, it makes perfect sense, because “not food-safe” does not necessarily mean that it is harmful, just like your living room table is “clean” instead of “disinfected”. So, no, this kind of coating would not be harmful, just not at the level of food-safety, and if you can get a much tougher blade, the tradeoff is well worth it _especially_ in a war.
I purchased a Gen 1 17 in the early 90’s, my wife bought me a 81 for Christmas that year and I still have both.
lucky man
Bet the bottle opener function is what really sold it to the Austrian army
LOL. Opens bottles from Russia or from the Free World, whatever is convenient.
I have a 78 purchased back in 1986, more or less in brand new condition…love the balance of this knife.
Glock innovation is remarkable. I have more than a few pistols but, my G-17 is my go to gun.
I don't yet have a Glock knife but I will soon. RIP Gaston.
If by innovation you mean selling the same thing based on other people's work forever at an OK price that's reliable then OK.
It’s a Ka-bar with subtle changes.
They handed out pens at ShotShow 2019 and it is a perfect pen.
did it uncap itself and spill ink all over your leg when you try to put it in your pocket too fast?
@@borregoayudando1481
No, it was not made by SIG.
@@borregoayudando1481 Think SIG made a pen with those features... 🤡
They handed out pens, so it's "and they're* perfect pens*".
@@einundsiebenziger5488 That’s if I wanted to say every pen they handed out was perfect and not just the one I received.
Picked one up about 30 yrs ago n carried it for years with my time on the swat team. Still have her,great knife always held a edge.
I've used and abused mine for almost a decade now... and it still performs. I even made some modifications on it; I added jimping, some serrations near the guard, and a sharpened swedge. The jimping aids in carving, the serrations are good for ripping through thick fur and hide, and the swedge lets you use it like a drill, perfect for plastic garden containers.
R.I.P Mister Glock😢
Legends never die!
When did we start obsessing over tools like this? I can't remember a time when I needed to cut something and failed because of the quality of my knife. Now we need the edc tactical survival adventure Woosterhaugen Mark II v3.5 because the 3.4 was crap.
You sound like you're more the kind of guy who only get stick and rock because stick and rock useful.
i have one since 15 years, still in good shape and i love that knive
that mounting point as bayonet also works well as a bottle opener
My dad loves these knives so much that he uses them when he has participated in knife throwing competitions. They are wonderful all-rounder outdoor knives.
Dads a bad ass
I have a glock entrenchment tool. Its a really good compact shovel. It has a saw attachment too. The glock knife also has a hole in bottom of the handle under the cover that you can mount as a spear too. Excellent bushcraft tools.
I bought one of these just for the memes and novelty it was made by Glock. Knowing nothing about them, and it turned out to be an incredible knife lol
Same, I needed a knife for cutting boxes and stuff and thought "Ooh, a Glock knife, that's cool." Fortunately for me it works like a charm for anything and is still in perfect condition.
I got one not long after this video was recommended on my home screen. I guess it worked, lol. It is a really nice knife though, esp for 30 bucks. Needed sharpening but I have sharpeners bc I like knives. The balance is great and the serration is different from any other knife I've owned, it reduces the likelihood of it catching on something a LOT. Once you get used to the very sturdy lock on the sheath it's also fantastic yet simple.
Great video. I would add the sheath is ingenious. I holds the knife so firmly it is approved for airborne troops yet you can release the knife easily. The sheath does not contain any glass fibers that dull the edge like so many other plastic sheaths.
Like sheaths made from Zytel.
Perfect knife and hollow tang doesn't really mix
It simply does not apply to this knife. Own a 81, handle seems sturdier than the blade.
No but this one is surprisingly very durable.
had one of these for years now and never knew about the plug and hollow tang, thanks for the vid!
Same here I thought it was just crap knife that I threw in my camping gear.
No one makes knives like Gaston!
Noooo oooonnee molds plastic like Gaston, puts holes in arseholes like Gaston!
Short and informational. Nice work.
I own two 81's and i love em. Great blades and very durable.
Fantastic video. This channel is going places. Subbed.
I bought two of these brand new at a gun show about ten years ago for $20 each and gave one to a friend as a gift. They really are great in every way.
Should never give a knife as a gift it represents the severing of a friendship, got to make them buy it off you for a token amount like a dollar to avoid the negative implications.

I have one in black and the coolest part for me is the hard case cover that can be used as a weapon itself when you use it as self defense and i have another green one from my army year ! It’s a cool knife fosho ! It’s my only fixed blade knife ! Love from Austria
When the Vegas incident happened, I was at MMI school at Orlando. Most of the students are veterans. We found a video like this, and all of us agree that it sounds like a 240 Bravo with "I shoot it" before, too. I agree with you 💯.

I bought one for myself and one for my nephew when he was in the Army. I keep the first few inches in front of the hilt razor sharp for fine work.
I have a black knife identical to that, plain spine, bought in the mid 70's. It was made by AES, Solingen, West Germany. The sheath is the same, except for the clip at the front. Maybe this design inspired Herr Glock. And I love my Glock 30!
I got one in West Germany many years ago, when I served in Europe. It was great for general military use and I had it for about 15 years, until it was stolen. A few years ago I got my hands on two field knives that had no Glock markings, so the first thing you think is that they're fake. However, it turns out they were made under license for the Polish Military Police and are marked "WZ.81ZW."
WZ.81 = wzór.81 (Mark or Model No.81)
ZW = Zandarmeria Wojskowa (Military Gendarmerie or Military Police)

I learnt ot the G81 when I received one with my G21 pistol. I was primarily a knife nut and within a week the dealer had sold out. I was taught to throw knives by a Serbian Dr who also received one. I found the blade a tad thick for hunting, but one heck of a knife.

I went down on my Triumph adventure bike up in the Rocky Mountains. When the dust cleared I was pinned under the bike. Fortunately I could reach my camping equipment to fetch my trusty Glock folding shovel. It took about 45 minutes to dig my leg out and free at last!
@@MrJedi5150 Meet the Triumph Tiger Explorer. It weighs in at 550 pounds plus another 80 or so of camping gear on that particular day. Wedged into a berm, my ankle was pined between the peg and the pannier. I couldn’t get the bike to even wiggle much less lift it off my leg. Great shovel though.
They also made a similar telescoping tactical shovel which is very handy in the field along with that knife which I kept after selling my old Glock pistol!

LOL, shilling hard, aren't we? I had to carry one of these things as a draftee in the Austrian army and it was a lousy piece of kit. Prone to break in the cold (seen it happen several times), rust and dull. Useless to butter the canned bread they issued and as a weapon: I doubt it goes through an enemy's winter uniform. Would have rather used the spade turned into an edge with a file as some units were trained. Never figured out a use, the official army newspaper said it's for "... auxiliary mine clearing..." Auxiliary mine clearing, eff me. I certainly would nit spend my own money on these things, there are much better knives out there.
The fm81 is the "combat knife" in DayZ FOR A REASON
Fieldmesher? Fellmesher? Feldmesher? At some point we will reach Feldmesser and I'm here for it!
Wonder how so many native-English speakers feel the need to make a "Sh" sound when they read "ss" in a foreign word, even though they would pronounce anything like they read it in their own language.
Really hated this garbage during my time in the Austrian Army early 90s. Can't use it for anything, we used it only to chop sticks and roots. Rusted the second you looked at it. The best was that the sheath held so well that the knive with the sheath was pulled out of the carrying strap! Everybody used their own private knifes, I use the first Leatherman, which I own till today.
I'm a Marine, hardly anyone uses Kabars. When you see a Marine with a Kabar it usually makes you smile. Folders and smaller 3.5-4.5" fixed blades are what do the job.
@@1980Baldeagle Is it true that you can put some hardware store O-rings in the handle and improve the grip
@@tonydragon784 yes.
@@1980Baldeagle
Look up the SOG Pillar. I gave one to a relative who's a former marine & he fell in love with it saying it's the best knife he's ever owned. It has a 5" blade & 5" handle & weighs only 7.25oz making it super fast in hand.
Well put. Its totally overrated. Every instructor called it a bad knife and it is a bad knife.
The "field knife" was designed as a bayonet for the Steyr AUG, not as a "field knife". Yeah, Glock thought a BULLPUP needed a bayonet. 'Cause that makes tons of sense. That's why the base of the knife is hollow.
"Field knife" is in quotes because it's a pretty bad field knife. It's also not a great self defense knife. No belly and the thick spine is just way more than needed. Spring steel is a giveaway to the original intent for use as a bayonet. Spring steel makes pretty "meh" knives.
Your whole comment is just you yapping. Why does it not make sense to you that a bullpup needs a bayonet? Its an issued service weapon of course its going to need one.
@@KipKil1igan Because of the range, duh... I wouldn't even talk on how an AUG should be held for stabbing.
@alatus7242 i was issued one lol. "The range" ahahaha 🤣🤣🤣 you ever see a bayonet on a jungle carbine? Weird huh? If you've ever done bayonet fighting you'd know you're meant to get in close doesnt matter the length of the weapon it's on
@@KipKil1igan If you are getting that close, better have the knife in your hand or best use your shovel. What's next? A Glock bayonet on a Glock pistol? The real bayonet from the musket and WWI times was dubbing as a spear to the limited fire power. These days it's like carrying a sword in a fight.
I have different reasons for disliking their knife, but I agree it's junk.
I've had one of these knifes(the 81) for over 15 years now. It's the best knife I've ever owned.

Next up: how glock made the perfect fanboys. 😂
My dad picked one up at a gun show, absolute winner of a knife. Unbreakable, good steel, well balanced.
This was the first fixed blade knife I owned. I got a Glock 81 for my 13th birthday. I liked it because I saw Nutnfancy's review. It's a great blade
It's probably the toughest knife without a full tang you can get.
That bloody plug on the bottom is almost impossible to get out tho.
That upturned part of the handguard is a bottle opener, and a really good one.
I don't have my 81 anymore, I have a 78 now. The 81's saw is a notching saw for a basha and i didn't use it, it also chewed up my batons.
It's a 5* knife tho. Cheap and reliable.
For the price they can't be beat. I remember picking one up (brand new) for the price of $25. This of course was long before Bidenflation took over. They are still a great deal today.
This is not a great not even a good knife. It is a bayonet, good for stabbing and because it is sturdy you can pray with it (ammo boxes, etc). But as a cutting tool you can find plenty other better alternatives, even a cheap Mora is better. Of course if you have nothig else with you than this one, you could be glad to have it. Way much better than having nothing. But when you can choose, and need a real tool, choose something more refined. Look at a Fallkniven, or a Cold Steel SRK, Recon Scout, or any Busse knives and you will understand why did I say that about the Glock knife.
So no offense, if someone enjoy to use it, please, go ahead. :)
Cold Steel SRK is excellent - comes in a compact version as well. Nice sheath included
I have one of these! It’s a great knife.
Amazing! I came across your video and suddenly realised I own a Glock 81 😂😂😂. Bought it during my military service back in the 80's. Still have it.
To be honest... It is the absolute WORST knife I have ever owned.. By far
Explain.
Perfect? What a joke. That handle is way too slippery. The surface is slippery and it is exaggerated by being round. If your hand is the slightest bit wet you'll probably end up hurting yourself with this knife.
Might get one myself
i will be buying two this week!!!!
it sucks and breaks easily
The glock fixed blade is junk. Fit and finish is poor. I bought one and immediately returned it. What a disappointment! With all the hype i really thought it would be good too.
Own one. Sand color, with sheath. Very cool. Kinda like a ka bar Marine fighting knife
That's what I thought. Their designers borrowed heavily from kabar.
