Encyclopedia of Military Knives
ČSLA and ACR Knives
UTON.cz was founded in 2009 out of a passion for Czech military history. Over 17 years it has become the most comprehensive online source of information on military knives of the ČSLA and ACR.
David Beer — author and collector
I have been collecting ČSLA and ACR military knives since 2005. Over more than 20 years I have documented hundreds of pieces, went through archives, and spoken with manufacturers, soldiers, veterans and collectors.
