Anyone seen a knife like this before? Pictured with a 58mm. Old crossbow stamp and INOXYD on the reverse.

Holy moly!  That thing is awesome!!!  Judging by the tang stamp it's from the '20s!  (1923-1930)

Just 2 blades?  Early version of Pocketpal or student?  I'm guessing horn scales...

Yes horn scales nickel silver rivets and liners. Its too small for a pocket pal no? 58mm with it for reference.

Maybe jazzbass knows... Maybe just had a number at one point?  There was an early 58mm with just blade/file called the pocket pal, btw. At any rate beautiful (antique) knife! :tu:  :cheers:

Could it be one of those 75mm ones or peasant knives?

There was no name for that knife, just a number. Its a No 610. You can see that knife on page 31 of the 1942 catalog on sakwiki.
It should be 61 mm, not 58.
There was also a 610 ring version. Both very rare. Usually horn or mop scales.

Thanks very cool. I'm sure this one predates that catalog though based on the stamps?

Wow, is it definitely a vic?  The camo scales didn't start until the 80s from my recollection, but it's looking pre 61 :think:

I know of one like that for sale but with the long nail file on the back.
That one is from the 40's so this one might be too...

I "might" be able to persuade an older gentleman to part with his elinox pruner blade picknicker.
5 turn fluted corkscrew, metal camping inlay, sharpened bottle opener, holeless awl.  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

The serrations are almost worn away, but the knife has a story to tell, and has lots of character.
Wish me luck!
All I know is that I don't know anything - but I can't prove it!

I have a few questions about a new-to-me 58mm SAK that is inbound.
1) Any idea of year range that this was produced?  Or will the tang stamp help me there?
2) Any idea of why it is wrapped in cellophane?  I haven't seen that before, perhaps the former owner had a plastic wrap machine used for preserving knives?  :think:
3) Does it look authentic?  For some reason the rivets seem big, but maybe it's just the angle of the photo.

Any thoughts appreciated.
Thank you.

I know this knife. It has to be authentic.

1: Its a classic, patented in 1952. The rivets disappeared in 1957. So in that time range it should be produced.

2: Thats not an original wrapping/packing method. No idea why its wrapped like this.

3: Yes, authentic.

A very beautiful and rar knife. I don`t know why but in the last weeks appeared many of exact this knife (Southern Railway System) on the net.

Given that most 58mm's live a hard life dangling from a keychain, plus the date range it was made, this knife is in incredibly great shape!  My brother in law is a huge railroad buff and would love to have one of these!

I was shocked at the condition too, which is why I kind of overpaid for it.  But, I thought it would go nicely with my other railroad SAK.

Thank you Barry and Mechanickal, you are too kind.
Here's hoping that 2018 is the year of the 4 exposed rivets find (on a 91mm), that would be awesome!  :cheers:

I have a 1962 Soldier inbound and it is arriving in a sheath, see picture.
Do you think the sheath is an after-market item, or???  :think:

Question, is this 2 layer SAK a Spartan or a Standard?  Sorry for the poor photo, I'm having some technical difficulties at this moment.
