So whats the story behind the Mauser? Why the name Mauser? And why so rare?
Mauser is well known German gun manufacturer that the knife was produced for.
It has all the GAK/Trooper knife tools plus the unique clip point blade "the Mauser blade".
I am not sure when they stopped manufacture it but as far as I know it is been in the 80's.

Yes, the Mauser was made as a private companion piece for owners of the Mauser rifle. There were a total of 25,000 made and it has become a rare icon for SAK lovers like the Scientist, Yeoman, etc.
And to think I gave mine away :twak:
Have you got it of your sister yet ???
Yes she handed it back I cleaned it up put an edge back on it then gave it to a mate who was in need of a legal folder for camping /hill walking etc
I hope the dude saved your life or gave you a kidney, if you gave him a Mauser :D
Give in, buy several Farmer's!!!!!!

Yes, I do. Bought it brand new for my 18th birthday, when I didn't even know bout Victorinox or SAKs. It spent the next 10 years in my pocket doing all kinds of work, but now is retired, the 91mms have taken over.
I'll take a few pictures later for you guys!

Glad to see a knife being used, as opposed to a shelf queen. My Master RT (made only in 2010 for the 125th anniversary)  is probably close to equally as rare, and while I don't use it much, it's probably the best SAK to have if you're doing anything mechanical.

Not to mention, I got it totally by mistake. Bought a used Soldier, received the Master.

No, sir! This is not a shelf queen.
Although it is now semi-retired...
