About 15 years ago Victorinox offered a series  (Khalsa) of knives with the Sikh symbol on them. The set included seven Vic SAKs and two fixed-blade kirpans made by Muella. Long out of production.

More recently three or four Vics with Indian tourist sites such as the Taj Mahal on the handles were offered.

I saw one of those Sikh symbol knives for sale a while back on eBay. The seller was stressmaster5000 (also a member here). I don't know if it was sold, and maybe he knows more about those and where he got them.

I have a Muela knife rebranded by Victorinox as Sikh Kirpan and marketed by them.
