    I still have a survival knife from childhood. My father won it as a safety award when he was working in the coal mines when I was in WV. I've had that thing since I was around 11 years old.

    вчера утром президент России Владимир Путин обратился за медицинской помощью с жалобами на резкое ухудшение состояния здоровья. Путин жаловался на сильную боль в голове, нарушение зрения, онемение языка и частичную потерю чувствительности правой руки и ноги. После оказания ему первой помощи президент прошел обследование, после чего консилиум врачей, которые имеют отношение к лечению президента и профильных специалистов, которых привлекли вчера к лечению Путина, назначили лекарства и рекомендовали как минимум пару дней полный покой. К полудню по московскому времени президенту стало значительно легче, а к вечеру состояние полностью стабилизировалось и не вызывало у медиков беспокойство. Больше обеспокоились близкие президента, для которых столь резкое ухудшение здоровья Владимира Путина вызвало нервную реакцию, больше похожую на панику. Несмотря на онкологию у президента и негативные прогнозы врачей, его близкое окружение и семья тешат себя оптимизмом и надеждами, что всё будет тянуться, чуть ли не вечно. Не обращая внимания на уговоры врачей и близких, глава государства отказался от рекомендованного полного покоя и уже вечером провел недолгое совещание с представителями руководства силового и военного блоков. Путину доложили положение дел на фронте. Он поинтересовался "успехами" и спросил когда будут "освобождены" Артемовск (Бахмут), Авдеевка и другие населенные пункты, которые были обещаны военным руководством. Услышав невнятные оправдания и перспективы, президент занервничал и завершил совещание. Ближе к ночи у президента опять заболела голова и приняв лекарства он отправился спать. Впереди у Путина непростая рабочая неделя и есть ряд мероприятий и встреч, пропустить или отменить которые будет проблематично. Использование двойника, как показывает практика, довольно эффективный, но не самый надёжный способ для президента решать вопросы с "личным" участием. Двойник временами выдаёт себя манерами, поведением и оговорками, так что президент зачастую должен находиться на подхвате, плюс бывают встречи, на которых Путин должен присутствовать лично и дублером, в таких случаях, не отделаешься. Временное резкое ухудшение состояния здоровья президента уже заставило ближайшее окружение напрячься. Внезапная смерть Путина поставит их всех перед неизвестностью, вернее на грань выживания, а на вчерашний день ни у кого из них не было даже примерного плана действий в таком случае.למרבית המבוטחים בקופות החולים קיימת פוליסת ביטוח סיעודי, אך שלא רבים מודעים לכך. בעזרת חברה למימוש זכויות רפואיות תוכלו לתבוע את הביטוח ולקבל סכומי כסף שיקלו מאוד על חייכם וחיי האדם הקרוב לכם אדם סיעודי יכול לפנות לכמה מחוזות לקבלת סיוע. זה מתחיל עם המוסד לביטוח הלאומי, שעשוי לספק לו שעות עבור מטפל אישי או סכום כספי בעל אותו ערך. סיוע משמעותי עוד יותר הוא הביטוח הסיעודי, שמשווק כיום בעיקר על ידי קופות החולים. גם חברות ביטוח עשויות להציע את הפוליסה החשובה הזו, אם כי בדרך כלל אלה פוליסות שנפתחו לפ זכאים לעיתים גם אנשים שמתפקדים בצורה סבירה."למרבה הצער, אין כיום מודעות מספקת לגבי ביטוחי הסיעוד הפרטיים. ברוב המקרים מדובר בפוליסות הנמצאות תחת קופת החולים, ורבים הרי בכלל לא מעניקים תשומת לב לדו"ח התקופתי שהם מקבלים מהקופה", מתארת אילנה בריסקמן - מומחית זכויות רפואיות בחברת לבנת פורן.

    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.

They might not be names Quisling, but he was a traitor in WW2 and so his name is what we call a traitor in Norway. 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.

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?

    UK here. These knives were only five pounds when i bought one, as a 15 year old in 1987. It was a black coated blade, no tang of course. It had a fishing kit a sewing kit, a very cheap wire saw, and waterproof matches in the hollow handle, a sharpening stone on the sheath, and the terrible compass instead of a pomel. Definitely Chinese materials and construction, But at the time, i bought it in person from a shop with money my paper round made me. It was so terribly rubbish, but i loved it, took it camping, fishing, and to my ATC ( air training corps) regiment flight trips. I genuinely have fondness for it still. I had more pleasure from that terrible thing than any 200 pound knife i have in my collection now.

    @@elvincollins1095 How's the condition after 40 years? I spent a lot of time in the wild with mine, so the condition deteriorated over time. But the unit was still complete and fully functional and it never broke despite the beating I gave it. I have paid a lot more for similar knives that were junk in comparison.

    When I was a kid we took family vacations to Silver Lake in Wautoma, Wisconsin. I bought this EXACT knife at a flea market near they lake when I was about 12/13 years old. I thought I was a combination of John Rambo and Huckleberry Finn! I was out swimming in the lake, diving down and cutting seaweed. I dropped it, it sank down into the darkness never to be seen again. I was crushed. Looks like you found it! :)

    I received this knife back in the eighties and I still have it in unmolested condition with the original cheap sheath. The liquid in the compass has since evaporated but your video has given me the inspiration to rehydrate it and I hope the magnet still works. Mine also has two metal rings for use with the metal wire saw. They are stowed around the threaded part of the handle and compass top secures them. Nice video!

Keep up the great work! :)

    Wow - Really cool. I still have mine, my wife uses for gardening for breaking up the hard soil. Mine does look better than the knife at the beginning of the video. If I remeber correctly, I bought it mid 80's, it was advertised as a mail order item. The knife is very solid but the blade was dull. If I remember right it also came with fishing line, hooks, and some serrated metal wire for cutting branches inside the handel of the knife. I probably still have the knife sheath and sharping stone somewhere.
