Additional Notes: The The WW2 U.S. Navy Survival Pilot Folding Knife was an essential tool issued to Navy pilots for emergency situations. These knives were designed for durability and versatility, often featuring a folding blade and saw to assist in survival scenarios. Nicknamed the “Big Jack” or “Giant Jack”, these huge folding survival knives were introduced during WW2 by the Colonial Knife Co. of Providence, R.I., for use by U.S. Navy pilots. These heavy-duty knives were placed in aircraft survival kits. The knives were chemically blackened with one large clip point locking blade and a saw blade suitable for cutting metal.
