No pictures, but I have a few of the Riveted PST's from Japan.  Think I should be in this club.

4. US REG'D TM 1325473 solid rivet. Leatherman only on blade. Bevel on can opener different from non US marked handles and hollow rivet version with US markings on handles.

They show up in the for sale and trade sections of this forum very once in a while and on ebay. They usually dont last long so you need to be quick on the trigger to score one. Happy hunting.   :)

How do you tell if it's from Japan? Stamp no stamp?

Japan-made PSTs were put together with rivets (of various kinds) instead of knurled screws. :tu:

 Also, the Japanese version does not have the USA mark stamped on the plier.
