I got a Ka-Bar Model Number 3073 Warthog Folder, Serrated a few days ago It has the right number on the box, but it has the number of the of the plain edge Warthog Folder, 3072, etched onto the blade. These 2 and the 3074 Warthog Tanto Folder all have 3" blades and G10 handles. They don't share much besides the Warthog name with the 1278 Heavy-Duty Warthog. It has a 6.75 inch fixed blade and weighs 1.05 lb. The folders are 0.3 lbs, so all 3 of them combined would weigh less than the big boy. That one has a TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) handle shaped like a bunch of other Ka-Bar knives. The liner lock on my knife is so hard to operate that I hold the knife in my left hand and use my left thumb to press it down. I do that with a lot of my liner locks if I have both hands free. Have I mentioned lately how much I hate liner locks? In my experience, frame locks are usually better that liner locks, but most of them seem to suck too.
