Dating a SAK by scale or packaging
on: October 19, 2017, 04:34:46 PM
I'm doing my very best to set up a document or a system to date SAKs.
Dating them is half the fun to me.
While I was doing noting at work today  :facepalm: I thought about the scales and packaging.
Those also changed over time. But I hardly have any information on this.
Is there information out there that I missed concerning scale colour and date?
Or box/documentation and date?

It can prove to be valuable information when SAK hunting online. Packaging can be date-matched to the SAK and scale to see whether there has been any work done on the SAK.

Can any of you guys help me out or steer me in the right direction?

I'll share what I have /know  but i think Jazzbass holds the key here.
