The concept has spread to new versions such as the Lapu Lapu Corto by Chersuker Messer of Germany and carried by the USMC. The LLC won TACTICAL KNIFE OF THE YEAR @ IWA, Europe’s largest Military, Security and LE Show. He has helped design the newest bayonet –fighting knife of the USMC made by Ontario knives.
