    Description

    This vintage Al Mar knife is just out of long-term storage and is perfect for the serious collector.
    A former sales rep. sample of ours, it has never been used, carried, sharpened, or sold at retail.  It was only shown to retailers, catalog companies, etc. during our approx. 12 years as sales reps. for the Mar's in 11 Western states.
    This is essentially a brand new 30-year old knife and shows the precision craftsmanship and beautiful designs Al was known for.
    Arguably the best looking of the SF-SOG's AMK produced, this black Micarta #4008A1 is the last variant of this model.
    It replaces the stacked leather washer handle of the original design with a black Micarta handle with subtle green layers.
    This is a later version with a satin finished blade from about 1992
    6" hollow ground 6A stainless blade
    Long top grind
    12" OAL
    Robust 1/4" thick blade
    stock
    Brass and stainless guard and pommel
    Red, white, and black fiber spacers
    Etched Special Forces and MACV-SOG crests on the rev
    ese
    Also has the later guard with forward angled top guard lug for better grip comfort.
    A former office display piece, this is a terrific knife with tons of eye-appeal
    No box or leather.
