ADDITIONAL INFO:   This is an unusual knife, I have never seen another Stanley with the skeletonized handle. I actually use this in my shop for several months and it was a favorite go to knife when I wanted a knife that was really sharp. It settled my workbench for several months this is a really good knife and someone deserves to EDC this knife. This is a good, hard-working knife. I don’t know where it’s made, but from the precision of the construction and the quality of the blade I suspect it’s a product of Japan in the late 1980s or early 1990s. The steel reminds me of AUS-8A, it gets scary sharp and stays that way. If you want something that’s kind of a novelty but also a really good knife, you could do far worse than this Stanley!
