Navy SEAL's Knife Carried During Bin Laden Raid Fetches $35,400 at Auction
By Ben Romans

How much would you pay to own a knife carried by a Navy SEAL on the raid in Pakistan that finally took Osama Bin Laden off the Most Wanted list?
One auction bidder thought $35,400 was the right price for this history-laden folder (an example of the knife model is pictured above).
According to ABC News, the knife is an Emerson CQC-7B, a model popular throughout the Special Forces, and was carried as a secondary blade by a former SEAL Team Six member, indentified by his author pseudonym Mark Owen. He's the same retired SEAL who wrote the first-hand account of the mission, "No Easy Day". (The New York Daily News has reported Owen's real name is Matt Bissonnette.)
According to the auction writeup, Owen received the knife as a gift years ago, but donated it to a friend raising money for several charities that benefit Special Operation Forces, hoping the blade and the history behind it, would attract a substantial offer. In addition to the knife, the winner also receives certificates of authenticity from Owen and knife maker Earnest Emerson.
It was one of several items in the charity auction put on by The Macalan Group along with Combat Flip Flops and Intelligent Waves IW in Tampa, Floriday this week.
The proceeds from the knife sale will go to the family of Brett "Shady" Shadle, who served in SEAL Team Six with Owen and was killed in an Arizona training accident in March.
“I’m donating the knife because the owner of Combat Flip Flops is a friend and when he told me about this auction and all the good that the money raised was going to go towards, I wanted to help in any way that I could,” Owen said on OutdoorHub.com. “Giving back to our community is very important to me and if donating this knife to charity helps with that process then I’m more than happy to do it!”

If you are brain-dead enough to believe that Bin Laden was "assassinated" by a member of SEAL Team 6, and then his body was "buried at sea", without any proof of any of this ever happening, then I have a box-cutter knife that I would like to sell you that was used by an Arab hijacker to kick the butts of the entire US military on 9/11/01. C'mon folks. You're not really dumb enough to fall for this BS AND fork over your money for yet another phoney story about Bin Laden, are you?
It's Seal Team Six, not "6".
Actually, buckhunter, SEAL is in all caps. Apparently, you don't know as much as you think you know. Let me guess, you're one of these folks who believes the BS about the Bin Laden "assassination", simply because the guy on TV told you.
Question: Have you done any research about how many of the SEAL Team Six fellas have "died" since the alleged raid? Lots of them, and under dubious circumstances. Do you think that this is all coincidence? Or, is it a case of "dead men tell no tales"?
Think about it. Please. The future of this country depends on people (like yourself) to wake up to what our Fascist government is doing. HINT: They don't give a buck's *ss about you.
Emerson designed autos are top quality. Many states have passed laws making switchblade knives legal. Gerber Emerson Alliance is a excellent tactical auto and really not all that expensive.

Hmmmm, has the United States government ever lied to people? Just turn on your television set and see all the lying going on with Benghazi and the Internal Revenue Service. Don't forget the lies during Watergate.
I don’t know what to believe. It is possible that it is another lie.
LoverOfLiberty, do you have proof the Navy Seals didn't kill Bin Laden?
We'll, if the truth be known, the guy on the grassy knoll told me all about it. The Navy SEAL's trained a pack of Yeti's to fly flying saucers into Pakistan to kill Bin Laden with laser beams shooting from their eyes. Don't let any of this out. It's top secret.
Gary Devine, shouldn't the question be: Do you have any proof that Navy SEALS did, indeed, kill Bin Laden?
After all of the changing stories about what happened that day (i.e., all of the LIES), one thing is 100% certain: We have yet to see a single shred of proof that OBL was assassinated by Navy SEALS, nor have we seen any photos of the alleged "burial at sea", etc. Why should the burden lie with "me" to disprove what happened when the government and complicit media have yet to prove what happened? All we have is their word, and history shows us that their word is WORTHLESS. So, I have absolutely no reason to believe anything that I've been told about Navy SEALS and OBL because I have yet to see any proof. In fact, with a little digging, you would discover that eye-witness accounts of the "raid" (i.e., by local Pakistanis) tells a totally different story of a helicopter crash and NO bodies being taken from the site. You'd also find accounts of foreign officials claiming that OBL died YEARS AGO. Heck, the guy was on kidney dialysis when 9/11 took place, and was reported to be near death then. How could someone in his condition, and with his healthcare needs, avoid the planets most powerful military and surveillance people for over a decade? I don't know about you, but I have a lot more faith in the capabilities of our military and CIA than to believe that they are so delinquent and cowardly that they couldn't track down a dude an old dude on kidney dialysis within days, let alone within over ten years.
As for you, buckhunter, perhaps you can back up what you are saying by showing a single piece of proof that OBL was assassinated by Navy SEALS. C'mon, bud. Just one piece of proof. Surely, a man of your confidence can present the evidence, no?
Lover, you are correct about one thing. Navy SEAL's lie. They lie to protect themselves, teammates and families. Plus, once the mission is complete, they owe no one the truth. To kill a Navy SEAL is one of the greatest accomplishments in many countries. They must protect themselves. Folk's like you are left guessing as to what happened and are forced to fabricate wild stories of cover-ups and radical government plots. However, the demons exist only in your head.
Oh, really, buck? Demons in my head? No, what I have in my head are BRAINS, and I use those brains to think critically about what I am told, especially when it comes to our government (the biggest terrorist organization on the planet) or by the mainstream media (their accomplices).
We were given ZERO proof to support the story about Navy SEALs assassinating OBL. In fact, the story we were told changed numerous times, none of which made any sense to any thinking man (or woman). Buried at sea in order to respect the Muslim religion? Really? Where the heck did they pull that BS from? You don't really believe that, do you?
If you do, then it is a hopeless cause to try and help you understand what is going on here. If you can even think past the "buried at sea" BS, then why would I expect you to understand the overall story behind OBL? Do you know that he was once on our side? Do you know that he wasn't wanted for any crimes associated with 9/11? Do you know that he was reported as "dead" many years ago? Do you have such little faith in our men and women in uniform that, after a decade, they couldn't find a very tall, old, and very ill Arab dude, given how many people and how much technology "we" have? We had 150k troops in Afghanistan looking for him, not to mention countless CIA agents and Blackwater / Xe contractors. A trillion dollars was spent. But, you believe that this OBL dude was so crafty and intelligent that he managed to outsmart all of that?
Really?
So, no, I'm not "guessing" what happened. I just know BS when I see and hear it. And, more often than not, if it comes from a TV, or a government official, or a media talking head, THEN IT IS BS.
As for "government plots", yes, they exist. That is what our government specializes in. How else do you think that 19 motley Arab dudes armed with nothing but Wal*Mart box-cutters were able to whip the butts of the mightiest military in the world (on 9/11)? Either you think our military is incompetent, or you think that they are all a bunch of COWARDS, afraid of scrawny foreigners with knives. Which one is it, bud? Incompetence? Cowardice? Or, is the story of 9/11 something totally different than what Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity keep telling you?
Please think about it. And, wake the eff up.
So we dropped one of our top-secret helicopters into the Pakistani's lap just to add to the ruse? Come back to reality, Lover.
So You know BS when you see it? You craft it so well you should. How about some sources and not just our reliance on the word of an anonymous one star troll? What "evidence" do you bring to the table. How about building an argument with facts? Evidence? Anything intelligent and thought out? Not rumors mind you. Remember your opposition put facts and first hand accounts out there to be disputed, what do you have? Some pointless fantasy stop wasting our time dipstick.
I was hoping that this blog might actually talk about about auto knives, military knives, or something interesting. Ben Laden is dead. If not he would have shown up by now. Pretty simple reasoning. I am glad he is dead too. If anyone is hating the US for Ben being dead then they can just keep on hating. He ain't coming back.
Anyone interested in Auto Knives let me know.
Ed
Hey buck and hobknob, the burden of proof lies with YOU. We have neither seen nor heard any evidence that Navy SEALS assassinated OBL. As in zilch. All we have is a story (wait... many conflicting stories) from our POS government and media, none of which have been backed up by FACTS.
I don't know about you gals, but I've been lied to more times than I can shake a stick at by these people, and I'll be damned if I'm going to believe anything they say, simply because they claim that I should "trust" them. If y'all are stupid enough to believe people that have lied to the population of this country time and time again -- lies that have led to the death and maiming of millions of innocent people (including tens of thousands of US service men and women), the destruction of trillions of dollars worth of infrastructure, at a cost of the on-going US tax-payers of trillions of dollars (I'm talking about the big Iraq WMD lie, amongst other lies) -- then I have some beach front property in the Sahara Desert I'd like to sell you. Really, I do! And, I'll give you a great deal on it, AND throw in a fancy Navy SEAL knife or two!
Do you ladies know how many of the Navy SEALS have died or been killed since the alleged OBL assassination? Do you think that this is mere "coincidence"?
Do you know that there is zero evidence that OBL's body was dumped at sea?
I want to post links to this stuff, but it's not allowed in this comment system, so you'll have to do your homework yourself. C'mon. It's not that difficult to Google this stuff. Or, are you too scared of what you might find? Ooooo, tough guys afraid of the truth.
Why don't you turn off your TV and do some research. Your total lack of knowledge of what is going on in this country and in this world makes me embarrassed to call myself "American". Yeah, Land of the Free and Home of the Brave. If you haven't noticed, we are no longer free. The Bill of Rights has been shredded by Bush and Obama, and our population reacts to it like a bunch of p*ssies, just begging for more propaganda to be rammed down their throats, and more god-given rights to be taken away from us.
So, just go on believing everything your TV or talk radio tells you, and some day you'll wake up in a FEMA camp wondering what happened. Then again, you ladies will probably be the first in line to get on the FEMA train, begging your nanny government to take care of you, and feed you, and wipe your a** for you.
Geeze, for a magazine that targets tough guys with guns, you people are a bunch of brain-washed zombie wimps, unwilling to take on the truth. No wonder this country is in such dire straights.
Again YOU claim resources but no sources. Face it your arrogant and grasping. The evidence supporting me is all in the open. Unlike you citing sourceless rumor and innuendo that cannot be scrutinized at all because its based on delusion and outright lies. Of course not putting it in writing and backing it up allows you to avoid outright refutation and being silenced as the fool you are. The underlying source of most conspiracy theories is arrogance and stupidity. Anyone can tell fish stories but without evidence that's all you got. My sources are news media, military and print sources that have no connections to each other. If they, do prove it along with concrete motives and methods of deception. With, you know evidence.
LoverofLiberty and buckhunter, having served in Navy Special Warfare Group 2 as a member of Team 2, I can tell you for a fact it is actually SeAL Development Group. Team VI is no longer their name. Often you will see SeAL in all caps on insignias or in the signature block of qualified SeALs, however the correct spelling is SeAL. This is based on the fact that it stands for Sea Air Land.
Rgw3, thank you for serving and for that awesome point of information. I never knew that about SeAL.
LoverOfLiberty,

Lover, I don't believe for one second that the US military, as a whole, would stand for being used as a political tool by this Dimwit-in-chief. Remember when the White House tried to use the training accident that killed several Marines to push the "fear of the sequester" bit? The Marine Corps didn't hesitate to stand up and say that it was a load of malarkey, did they? Knowing what kind of paperwork and high ranking officer confirmation it would take for the US military to say that bin laden was most certainly dead, I just don't think they would go along with BO on this.
Dear all. Some of you keep asking me to provide "proof" that OBL was not killed by Navy SeALs. This forum does not allow me to post links. I suggested that you do your own search on the internet. There is a ton of info out there.
I asked you to provide proof to the contrary. None have you have done that. You know why? Because you can't. Our government has provided zero proof. Same with the media.
As for hobknob's comment about there being no link between the military and the media -- Really??? Wasn't it the media that kept blowing the "Iraq has WMD" trumpet such that the military could go to war with Iraq? And, we know what happened with that WMD BS, don't we?
People, whether you want to believe it or not, the US of A is no longer the "Land of the Free". We are a Fascist state. The banks and the corporations rule. We the People have absolutely no power. And, no, it's not just under Obama. It was the same under Bush, Clinton, Bush Sr, Reagan etc., all the way back to JFK. He was our last real LEADER, and look what happened to him.
So, hobknob, the media and the military are, indeed, in bed with each other. That is how Fascism works. Our information is controlled by the media (aka propaganda), and the Military Industrial Complex (made up of corporations and banks) profit from the BS. Are you not aware that throughout the past 100 years (if not more), the bankers have funded both sides of all wars, ensuring that they profit no matter what the outcome. It really is that simple. And, the sad part about it is that young, naive, desperate "kids" fall for the BS and sign up to give their life and limbs, all in the name of profits for the banks and corporations. They certainly aren't fighting for our freedom. For, it they were, they're doing a pretty bad job of it. Last I checked, the Bill of Rights was shredded. If our military was really fighting for our freedom, they would refuse orders to fight illegal and useless wars, and take on the real terrorists and criminals -- the politicians in DC, and the CEOs and banksters.
Instead, they fall for the government and media's BS, just like most of you who refuse to admit that we've been duped about the OBL assassination (not to mention 9/11, 7/7, WMD, Gulf of Tonkin, Pearl Harbor, etc. The list goes on and on...).
I'm done with you folks. Go back to your lamestream TV news, your Budweiser and your McDonalds. Everything is rosy out there. Isn't that what your TV keeps telling you? It would be hilarious if it wasn't so sad.
Don't let the door hitcha dipstick. Name the sites for your proof. Total nutballs. The bigger the hoax the more people involved sorry your crazy theories hold no water. Sorry life doesn't live up to your fantasy's, not wait I'm glad it doesn't.
Gary Devine, You are welcome. It was one of the greatest honors and privileges I have ever had.
Way back in the day I worked with some Spec War Dev Gru guys who were at White Beach, Okinawa. "Loverofliberty" and everyone else ought to be thanking God every day they are on our side. Did it, didn't do it, whatever. Burial at sea, yeah I thought that was strange. Dead is dead. Good riddance. Hope he rots in hell, or whatever version of hell they believe in.
The only idiot here is the guy who paid 35000 for a knife. But we live in America!
Lover, if the military and media are cohorts, then WHY is the military constantly being criminalized by the media? Why are they constantly being portrayed as "baby killers, murderers and thugs"? I would think that, if they were partners-in-crime, they would stand up for each other, right?
So from your last statement I guess you are one of those who believe Bush paid off the pilots to crash the planes into the towers? And that FDR (liberal, though he was) rented hundreds of Japanese "zeroes" and bombed Pearl Harbor also?
As for the Gulf of Tonkin, that was a war that a bunch of hotheaded, non-committal liberals got us into, and then griped about until our troops couldn't even eat without presidential orders, much less fight a war.
LoverofLiberty (AKA lover of reading your own posts), you want proof? Look at how pissed Pakistan was that we trampled their sovereignty in taking out UBL. Look at the power vacuum it created in Al Qaeda, look at the muslim websites and news from just after the event.

How else do you think that 19 motley Arab dudes armed with nothing but Wal*Mart box-cutters were able to whip the butts of the mightiest military in the world (on 9/11)? Either you think our military is incompetent, or you think that they are all a bunch of COWARDS, afraid of scrawny foreigners with knives. Which one is it, bud? Incompetence? Cowardice? Or, is the story of 9/11 something totally different than what Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity keep telling you?
Please think about it. And, wake the eff up.
If you are brain-dead enough to believe that Bin Laden was "assassinated" by a member of SEAL Team 6, and then his body was "buried at sea", without any proof of any of this ever happening, then I have a box-cutter knife that I would like to sell you that was used by an Arab hijacker to kick the butts of the entire US military on 9/11/01. C'mon folks. You're not really dumb enough to fall for this BS AND fork over your money for yet another phoney story about Bin Laden, are you?
