I think mine is early 80's.  Pretty sure the inlay is stainless steel (post '80). They stopped the aluminum tip tweez in '78

 While my 20-year love affair with the incomparable Compact continues unabated, of late I’ve begun to flirt with the Bantam.

I’ve taken to keeping this near-weightless gem in my pocket when I’m puttering around the house, and so far it has performed admirably.

We continue to be very close in our tool selections.  84mm SAK, Squirt P4, and AA light clearly you are a highly intelligent man  :salute:

It's definitely been my basic formula for a long time now.  I'll chop and change bits every so often; say carry a traditional knife in place of the larger SAK and add a 58mm SAK, but this still has to be the core concept.

I suspect Ebay is your best friend on that hunt.  Golfers are probably the easiest ones to find.  Keep an eye on the Mutitool store as well though.

Good luck on your search for a scissored 84mm.  I was loving my 84mm Tinker till I got my Salesman.  Theres really no comparison in my mind to a scissored 84mm.

This cadet has now been passed on to a new home, but this is probably my favorite picture that I've taken of one of my knives

It's a pretty uncommon variation and people really dig the 84mm w/lnf.. i think it would go for up to $100 or more on fleabay.  I think a "good" price would be $50-60.
