Is this a Radio/Radio Engineers knife pattern?

[T. Erdelyi]

I've had this Scout Knife for about 15 years now, when I got it I was told it was a Radio Knife, I haven't seen that name associated with this paticular pattern anywhere in 15 years.

Anyone know anything else about this knife other than the fact it was made from 1992-2007.

I think that fifth blade was originally for WWII ski bindings. Adapted to Scout use.

Do those more recent Camillus models have the Schrade "tricky" bolsters? Never can remember the name.

I have an Ulster like that from about 1977 or so. My first Scout knife was stainless but the spring broke like a "demo" knife and it was replaced with the 5-blade as the ss was no longer in production. Its a tad loose and I'd like to find someone to tighten it, but not sure if possible with those bolsters.

It is my understanding that a 'radio knife' is a version of a TL-29 with just a single screwdriver / wirstripper blade. Not the Remington Easy Opens with the caplifter/scewdriver secondary pen like I originally assumed. Radio knives were made for the Army Signal Corps.

2007 model---I picked it up at BSA. I thought it was just a Scout Knife with a small screwdriver. It's a pretty handy pocket knife and I carry it in my small bug out bag when I travel twice a month.
