I bought this one on the Bay last week. I didn't recognize the pattern number. I have seen pattern 561, but it has a stag handle. I assumed this was a cheap version of the same knife. I got it for a pretty good price.
When it arrived today I was pleasantly suprised to find that it was a limited edition - one of only 300 made. Stacked leather handle and highly polished SS blade.
Anyone know when this was made? I know it was some time after 1986...
