That is a Japan made PST (JPST) for sure.

I think that this is not a trick of the light, snap cap on the sheath just steel without gold shades.
Most likely it's really gold color. In Japan were sold Mini Tools with gold (rather like a gold) coating:
https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,83044.msg2034924.html#msg2034924
Maybe such golden JPSTs also existed  ??? :think:

To my eyes it looks like a regular SS JPST, I think the red is a reflection from the red lining.  Look more closely at the second pic and you'll see what I mean.

Yes, it's a Japanese version. I just bought it, but I haven't got it yet. The seller doesn't have any other picture details， I think it's slightly golden. I don't know the specific reason.

I managed to score this beauty recently, but I don't know how to determine the relative age of Cabela's stamped PSTs. Does anybody know? Based on reading much of this thread and several others on this forum, I've determined that the lack of blade etch and the tang stamp make this a less rare variety, and probably not near the original '83 runs. is that correct? Also, I've never seen one with the 'World's Foremost Outfitters' handle stamp, either, so I don't know how that factors into dating.


This sheath didn't come with it, but is from a similar time period.


I can't tell if this is a sloppy factor edge, or if it was resharpened at some point. The additional grinding appears to match the look of other older droppoint blades I've seen from this era.


trying to show a bit of the tang stamp.

So, I just picked up another 'Pocket Survival Tool' PST. It's in pretty good shape for a 30+ year old piece of steel, but nowhere near minty. What's weird is the file appears to be heat anodized a light bronze color. I'm assuming someone took a torch to their PST for some reason, but does anyone know if PSTs were sold that way? Here's a couple pics next to another PST of similar age. It's not a trick of the light, it's got a copper-y bronze coloration. 🤔:

It's not just a bit of rust/oxiidisation is it?   :think: :think:

I don't know, but the rest of the tool doesn't have it at all, it's extremely uniform over the entire file (including the flat tang and the nail nick area), and two weeks of ballistol bath hasn't done a thing to it. 🤷🏻‍♂️
