thanks, i feel it was a club knife, so yes it would have been customized. the blade etch is done by hand not acid and is serial numbered. i think queen produced this knife. it looks and feels like another queen produced ka-bar i have.

after further research, i have found this congress in the ka-bar collectors club knife list. #061 of 401. made in 1988. ivory instead of bone. i did'nt know ivory was still used in 1988.
