Eric,
I am with Danny on this one, "although" I think "fake" wasn't in my thoughts. The sheath was not ordered with that TC, at least not from the photos. The throat is cut for a "straight" double (or single) hilt and not FCH. I am sure it works fine...just shows a bit of the blade, when fully inserted and snapped.
Best, Capt. Chris

It has the holes in the loop, like a model C sheath , the TC special does not , and it should have either a custom stamp or TCS above the stamp on the back of the sheath.

Capt. Chris and Danny, Misunderstanding I think. I bought the Sheath separate from the knife. The Sheath that came with the knife has a C stamped on the back. I did not want ot get it dirty so I wanted a user sheath, Gary had this no-hone laying around in his copious amount of extra sheaths.

"C" stamping, indicating "curved" (hilt) makes all of this a lot more sensible.
Best, Capt. Chris

Pat, I try to get extra sheaths for all the RMK's I use or plan to use in the future. I like to pair them up with one of my CCW's or open carry.
TC Special, separating hanging rope is the only use I have found for it so far.

Billy, 10-5 with Clinton G10 Camo, Gary also had a Johnson roughback 10-5 Sheath I got separately. S&W 625-7 3" barreled N frame chambered in 45LC. There were only 150 of these made for Lew Horton in 1999 verified in the Standard Catalog of Smith & Wessons. I use a chest mounted holster when carrying this one.

Howdy Neighbor,

Thank you. Yes you are right, To be more specific it is now a Post WW II and Korea British Military re-issue Inglis High Power. After serving in two wars, this pistol was sent to the RSAF Enfield Base for a complete refurbishment, parts replacement, and refinishing. This necessary refurbishment (F. T. R. "Factory Thorough Repair") was undertaken in the 1960's due to these pistol's heavy battle use all over the world. To designate this massive effort, the pistols were stamped (besides the original "Mk I *") "F. T. R." and given a FTR number with the date of the refurbishment. After receiving its necessary replacement parts the pistols were then reparkerized and coated with a synthetic black stove enamel. This one is dated 63.

My other Hi-Power is a Post WW II West German Military Police High Power stamped with the early "Fabrique National D' Armes De Guerre...." of the Belgian Government.
