    Ok, I got this many years ago and forgot about it until I just recently came across it in the safe. Bought it at a gun show in Atlanta and don't remember much about it. Story was no markings due to it being a 'sterile' knife, however the price was not bad and I bought the knife and not the story about it being some super-secret ninja killer made for some high speed military outfit.

    So can anybody tell me what I have?

    Closed length is about 5 1/4 inches.
    Open length is almost 9 1/2 inches.
    Blade length (straight line) is 3 3/4 inches.
    Sharpened length of blade is approx. 3 7/8 inches.
    Top edge of blade not sharpened.
    Blade, screws and button attract a magnet.
    Handle feels like aluminum and does not attract a magnet.
    I still have the red plastic mesh that encased it to keep it from accidentally opening.
    No safety lock or latch, press button and it jumps.

    It's got a very strong spring. It will finish opening and lock from any position the blade is in. Very solid feel and while I have never sharpened it, or used it, the factory edge is still sharp enough to shave.

    Thanks for the links. Very interesting read.

    That video looks exactly like it except the blade color. The one from Blade HQ is a newer model as it has an extra cut on the handle.

    The time frame is right, I was thinking it was around 93 when I got it.
