Help identify SAK pen knife
on: January 21, 2026, 12:28:15 AM
My first SAK found at an estate sale for $6
Red Celidor scales, 84 mm, one small clip blade, one large spear, bail, Victoria crossbow thru.
I believe I’ve looked everywhere for what model this is with no success.
Any help would be appreciated!

I love this. :tu:

For reference and the non german speaking folks... It says "Just Blade and Eraser" meaning the clip point was meant to be used as an ink scratcher, for instance when you made a mistake, you would carefully scratch the ink off the paper with a sharp knife.

I learned to do it from my mother back in primary school with a razor blade, she did that always as she was civil engineer drawing on those big sheathes of transparent paper with Rotring pens.

Yes that is exactly what the small blade was originally made for.

And good to see you Nikola, it has been a few years!
