Rust proof blades

You can get them!

Highlighted at Sharp, Bright, and Tactical WebMagazine, Spyderco and Benchmade both have rustproof knives for those sea faring individuals who work around or in salt water.

I have always wondered about the merits of the corrosion resistant steels, which leads me to question why firearm manufacturers don't use them for military weapons. I would think Marines and SEALs would love to have to have a rifle that doesn't need to have oil applied ten minutes after hitting the beach, and perhaps Soldiers wouldn't mind skipping out on slathering their rifle with CLP every now and then.

Hmmmm.
