I'm not sure when the Terror Monkey series came out. It's been at least four years, because I had the TM NO when I moved last time. I can't seem to find that release date info online, although I'm pretty sure it's out there somewhere. Perhaps one of our Busse Combat historians can fill us in on that release date.

Now is that any kind of question to ask another guy on a public family-oriented forum?

Oh..... you meant the knife. Yeah, I noted the difference too. Yours is a SH, right? If so, the handle differences may have fallen along model lines.
Some Terror Monkey handle info from
BusseCollector.com, which matches info attributed to Seth Murdoc in a post on
britishblades.com.
TM - Terror Monkey - Rumored to have been made for an Israeli special unit specializing in rappelling, these knives had a special coating and 2 handle variations, one EU-17 style, and another that thinned out the index finger area, and the curve going towards the butt. They were made from ZT (Zero Tolerance) blade blanks, in BM, SH, and NO versions. They were offered with either new-style serrations or plain edge.
