Anyone have a Vic Mauser ? Great arent they I dare not use mine but love it to bits, great knife .Lets see some pics Dunc
Mine didn't come with a sheath, so I'm pretty sure they don't as a rule As for rarity, Vic I believe only made 40K of them, which is a drop in the ocean compared to all the other Sak's they make, infact that's about half a day's production

I carried mine for a while after I got it. One of my favorite SAKs.
