Just got this knife, didn't think I would find one, since they were made back in 2008 and there wasn't that many of them.  Exclusive to the Royal Air Force, issued to personnel and in Aircraft Survival Kits.   This was a great find.  One more for my 111mm collection.  It is in great shape for it's age.  There was some tiny remnants of wood in the saw.  Logo is in really good shape with little wear.

There was a guy selling some of these on the internet a few years ago (fleabay I think)
I was a bit suspicious and thought it ws a scam

However, fortunately, my sister lived near to where the guy lived and so she popped over to see them.
Turns out the knives were totally legit - So I got two - One for me, and one for my brother, who was in the RAF cadets and school, and was lucky enough to get his pilot's license (lapsed now :( ).

So yes very happy to add that unusual model to the collection !   :salute:

Although I am not sure as to whether how he obtained them was legit ?   ??? :o
- As he was an RAF guy and lived on the base!!
Maybe legit too, and they were just surplus stores/no longer issued - and he obtained them in a sell off!!  ???   
Let's hope so.   :tu:
