On of my all time favourite books is Illusions,by Richard Bach.In it he mentions his Swiss Air Officers Escape and Evasion knife.Given that hes opening tins of food,its a SAK,but which SAK could it be?

I do not know, but here is the quote:

I peered into the grocery box. "It's soup or stew or Spaghetti-O's," I said. "Or pears or peaches. Want some hot peaches?"
             "No difference," he said mildly. "Anything or nothing."
             "Man, aren't you hungry? This has been a busy day!"
             "You haven't given me much to be hungry for, unless that's good stew."
             I opened the stew can with my Swiss Air Officer's Escape and Evasion Knife, did a similar, job on the Spaghetti-0's, and popped both cans over the fire.

Judging by the that description there is not enough to disqualify a fixed blade knife... plenty of examples of Gi opening tinned goods with kabar bowies... course you welcome to envision it whatever way takes your fancy and post one in the mod squad whichever way you like

I have a knife sold to me as a "Swiss pilot's escape knife", for punching thru the windows of the cockpit of a downed aircraft - marked STA 334 MK1, and AG in an oval on the large guard.  Will try to attach a photo:

I'd be scaried to own that pilot knife. It might have belonged to someone who has passed but not quite crossed over.
