When will I be able to buy a 2019 Soldier?

I got a kiddo graduating high school this coming spring, and I'd like a high school graduation VSAK to go along with his BYSAK. Would anyone happen to know how or when I might be able to buy a standard issue soldier's VSAK with a "19" engraved tang?

Thanks,

Myron

I'd guess maybe late '19 or early '20. Used to be when you bought a new Soldier model, you could be pretty sure it'd be stamped with the previous year, as the Army no longer needed them, and Vic and Wenger would release them from their stocks.

In this day of overnight ordering and shipping, you might luck out finding one around graduation time, if not earlier.

Thanks! I wasn't sure how the timing of Soldier knife releases worked. I'll have to keep my eyes open.
