it's a SERE folder, can't remember if it's a I or II. They had a variety of handles and 2 blade lengths, IIRC.

What pattern would you call that Micarta? I have an old Al Mar Eagle with that color and pattern, and have found it on web-sites labelled, "green micarta", even though it doesn't look green to me. It looks like a wood pattern, w/ a couple of shades of dark brown alternating.

This page that I surfed up online, shows some of these older Al Mark knives.

It is laminated wood. I've always liked the folding SERE's.

Very nice, I've always wanted one. So if you'd like to send me an early birthday present I can send you my adress.

Yeah, I remember those, though I always wanted one with the black neoprene handle so I don't know much about the micarta handled ones. Here's a site that has the smaller SERE with micarta handles for sale, they have a little info about the knife: http://www.cutlerscove.com/jack-knives/al-mar-sere1nm.htm

Al used to call that camo micarta I believe.
