Ok, so maybe this is gloating, but I just received this unique 84mm SAK today from FelineVet. It's like an 84mm Climber (yes, they did make them, but they're discontinued) but it has a Sportsman-style nail file in place of the small blade.
The SAK Selector calls it a "Super Sportsman" but admits that that is just a made up name, and that the official Vic name is not known.
If you want truly unique SAKs, you've gotta check FelineVet's offerings on a regular basis, over on sosakonline.com

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned the Huntsman yet. I've had mine since 1982 or so (got it when I was twelve). It was my only knife for many years and shows a lot of wear, but it is still totally functional. I plan to pass it on to my daughter when she's old enough.
The Huntsman is larger (3 1/2 inches or 91 mm), I believe, though I sure wish I had better references or sources aside from my anecdotal knowledge.
This has got me wondering if 84 mm models are at most 2 layers. Do they ever reach 3 or 4 layers like the Huntsman? (not to change the thread)
I have had 84mm Huntsman (Huntsmen?) many 84mm Climbers, and a couple of 84mm Fieldmasters.
Do you have an 84mm Huntsman? THAT would be a nice, scarce SAK!
