Picked up this Al Mar folder at a sale this week end for $1.00, does any one possibly know what model it is? It measures 3 7/8" closed and 6 3/4" open. I think it must be one of the older ones because I cant find anything about it any where. Has a little of the black worn off but doesn't look like it has ever been sharpened.

I don't know too much about Al Mar knives, but it's always cool to find an older gem like that. Good pick-up:thumbup: Good luck finding out about it.

Cheers,

nylanknife,
From memory, I believe it's called the Al Mar Backup. I've usually just seen it fully serrated. Good find.

I see Al Mar has come out with two new Backup models. Both fixed blades this time around. The Model 1 Backup has a nice look to it: 4" AUS8 blade. Nice score nylanknife. :)
 
Thanks for the info. I haven't been able to find a reference to it anywhere. Any idea when it was made? I figure its probably worth around 50 so I figure I made out pretty good.

Yea, the new backups are pretty sweet looking.
