I might have missed it, but has anyone seen any plans for an Apollo 11 50th Anniversary knife?

Really? I can't find any mention of an astronaut Swiza on their website.
There was an alox Pioneer sold by the Schweizermessershop which had an astronaut theme.
(I am sure I posted a picture of it somewhere on the forum, but I can't find it so here is one from Swissknives.info)
Anyway, this had nothing to do with Nasa or the moon landing, it was just a fun design.

Nice!
So the black coated edition was limited to 10 pieces?! No surprises, they seem to have gone already. I wonder what they cost?
The standard non coated version is still available - you can pick which number you get (XXX/100), which is pretty cool. Not cheap but I am a sucker for things like this...

Beautiful knives!  I'm a space race collector so I'll be busy from the looks of it.  Yes, I meant a 50th Anniversary Astronaut release.

Though I have no idea what the history on this piece is.

I think this Case 'survial' knife is included inside a 'survival' pack for the Astronauts, it make perfect sense though.

Yes, according to Case's website, it did travel to the Moon and back on nine missions as part of the Apollo's missions.  It is an interesting read, and the design does make sense to me--with a blunt nose to pry, lightweight, machete blade and small saw tooth on top, it made more sense to me as a 'survival knife' than most common sawback knife we see on the market.

There's a pretty good Russian movie called Spacewalker which tells the story of Alexei Leonov's 1965 trip into space. After an adventurous time in orbit the Cosmonauts landed plunk in the middle of the Siberian snowscape where they had to survive for a day or two, freezing their butts off, while helicopters chugged all over the place trying to find them.
So, yeah, such a knife would have been pretty useful for making firewood etc!

Nice!
So the black coated edition was limited to 10 pieces?! No surprises, they seem to have gone already. I wonder what they cost?
The standard non coated version is still available - you can pick which number you get (XXX/100), which is pretty cool. Not cheap but I am a sucker for things like this...

2/100 is on the way to my collection  :tu:

Very nice! The green helmet glass is a nice touch on an otherwise black and white SAK! Really pops out.
I am trying to decide what to do with my non-black #12... it would be a good present for my brother who was born 50 years ago. Or I might just keep it...
