if it is the one from KOTCS then it should be from the german army. It got much dirtier when they used it in the field, so I think it should withstand a washer, but I would not do it into the dryer. I had all my things during my time in the army in the washer and it didn't hurt.

Not under 50$ but its the only screen acurate knife I know.
