What is this little sheath for? I believe the Mountain/Sun design on the flap is the Whittaker collaboration logo. The number on the back of the sheath is 178. That would be the number for an Adrenaline-Ti but that knife would be too long for this sheath and is not a Whittaker collaboration. I figure 3.5" max would fit. Went thru a bunch of catalogs & couldn't find it. Any help or ideas?

BINGO!!! Thanks hendo700. I only looked in the catalogs going back to 2000. And edbeau, you were right also, it was a recycled number. I have an big collection of SwissBucks and can't believe I didn't make the connection. Here is a page from the 1994 catalog.

I just had to run down stairs and try the sheath on. Perfect fit for the medium size SwissBuck.
I can't believe I didn't make the logo connection.

Here are some of my SwissBucks. I'm still on the hunt for 2 that I'm missing.

Don't feel bad, I would have guessed Toblerone.

Oh, you are so funny. I may be old but I get there eventually..... Swiss Chocolate...
With the exception of oregon, most of my own humor goes unnoticed on this forum.
