Camillus 5733 question

Was the 5733 pilots knife ever made in Black? Handle and sheath?
Interesting question. I have owned two of these that were black, both sheath and handle. Did not appear to be dyed by the owners. Both were pure military, one was actually attacted to the SRU vest.
Good quesiton for CAMCO to answer for us.
I do know that on the original KaBar USMC fighting knives, the handles were treated with an anti-jungle rot stuff that made them black.
