I’ve tried everything and I can’t seem to attach the image to the message.  Below is a link to the photo.  You can see the Rescue Tool on his belt.

I do not know how macgyveronline can say this is the Standard. It's just a blur.

Exactly not clear, it looks like 2 layer knife.
And Zito is very attractive character.

It certainly looks like a two layer knife, and I think I'm getting a flash of corkscrew, but that still isn't enough for positive identification. Also, I'm watching this on a standard definition DVD of a TV series from the 1980s, and no matter how often I shout "enhance" at my computer, the video's not getting any clearer.

It'd also be interesting to see which specific tools get the most use across both original and new series.
If I get time, I might go rewatch everything and compile a list.

Is this a real sak?
It looks like a Huntsman.

What kind of knife did MacGyver use in "THE STRINGER"?

The knife is similar to Vintage Swiss Army Style Multi Tool Folding Pocket Survival Knife.

I want to know more details.

Thanks a lot for your information.
I didn't know they were sold in 80's.
Long history.

Yup... very long...
I was probably 10 or 11 when i got that one in a local drug/hardware store. Still remember one of those bit petrol pumps the man had in the counter, when petrol was sold by the gallon for petrol lamps 
He had a handful of those SAK knockouts at the store window.
The knife was/is really a piece of crap, in every tool. The blade and scissors grind is a joke.... but it was kind of "cool" for a 10 year old

It's called the Diamond Superior or "Star-in-Q", if you want one.

Thank you for your information.
I try to investigate it.

    An old fellow came by a place I happened to be in one Sunday morning.  I sort of knew who he was.  George somebody.  Sometimes he had a fixed address.  Sometimes maybe not.  He gave me a big smile and showed me a small bag full of knives.  Chinese one blade candy striped handle folders.  One SAK fake.  Said he wanted to sell them for a dollar each to go get some coffee. 
    I said I didn't need a knife, but I would buy him breakfast.  He said no I didn't have to do that.  Then he said for me to take one since he had known me for so long.  I took the  Star in Q number to keep from insulting him. 
    I looked up Star in Q on Ebay and some people are asking big prices for them.  Don't fall for that.  These things are cheap as they come.  Believe me, you won't want one.  I don't know what I did with the one I got from Old George.  Threw it in on some trade, I think.  Approximate value on these things.... about a dollar.  Not a bargain at that price.  Best wishes.  Gary

I want to know the reason why MacGyver used such a fake SAK used in "The Stringer".
I want MacGyver to use a Victorinox Ranger model instead of Chinese knife.
