Yeah, the one I have is just like that one except for the Top Gun Logo. I had never heard that story about them being a gift to the movie personnel. I will have to ask Tom Cruise when I see him.Even though we messaged directly Jan 10th, so as to not look rude to everyone else, Thank you.
I know a little bit more about the knife I believe you are talking about. The original knives had the 1st "Top Gun" movie logo etched on the blade, to be given to select people who took part in the making of the movie. The extras's were put together with standard blades. I believe the one you had was one of these. There could be some truth with the extras going to the large retail store, but the original ones were for the movie. If anyone has more information about these, I am always wanting to know more. Even if I am wrong. Gerber had kept the records from before the1987 Fiskars purchase, but then they were all thrown away. Just a shame.View attachment 2764709
