Guido,

The knife you picture in question is a Model 27. Below is a photo of a Stoddard Special Sergeant's Model. The only special I am aware they have made. There are different handle choices now. This is serial number 8 and has a sunburst briar handle. The only other handle choice on the first 100+ knives was desert ironwood.

Regards,

Rhett
