Kershaw Amphibian Dive Boot knife?????

[bdws1975]

HI all,

I have a very distinct memory of having a kershaw boot knife when I was a youngling. It would have been around 1985 or so.

I also remember it being my first knife ever. Am I crazy? Have they been out that long?

At 32, my memory's not what it used to be.

thanks!

The Kershaw website shows a 1006K Amphibian knife with sheath... skeleton design with co-polymer insert. Is that it?

That sounds about right, I still have mine.

cool. I don't have mine anymore, as I lost it somehow as a kid. I do remember wearing it and thinking I was the bee's knees.

fun stuff.

thanks,

yep, that's it. I think it had a different sheath back them, but the knife looks about the same.

I bought mine with the leather sheath w/clip.
It was also available with the plastic sheath and straps.
