boardrider Knife Enthusiast Registered: 01/12/06 Posts: 685 Loc: Malibu CA, USA	Hope this is in the right forum...I have heard that Johnson stamped a "W" on his waxed sheaths that he made for the model #16, supposedly this was done staring in the early 1970s I have a model #16 black micarta handle, brass lined thong hole with no "W" on the waxed sheath (the sheath is identicle to a Brown Micarta unlined thong hole version vietnam era #16 knife and Johnson waxed sheath that I also have) My question is the lined thong hole would date the knife to later 70s at the earliest, right and I know that the knife and sheath have been a pair since new so what gives? "Is this just first in last out" or am I missing something...Thanks in advance for any help I may recieve here. By the way Rocky that is quite the nice Tennite! _________________________ G Snyder RKS #63 RKCC "REMEMBER, YOU CAN NEVER GO WRONG BY COLLECTING OR OWNING THE BEST" http://www.knife-collectibles.com

boardrider Knife Enthusiast Registered: 01/12/06 Posts: 685 Loc: Malibu CA, USA	Rex, Thank you for that! I have Sheldons book and somehow missed that paragraph...That said ole "Melvin" is certainly correct the majority of the time and I will believe that information. THANKS AGAIN _________________________ G Snyder RKS #63 RKCC "REMEMBER, YOU CAN NEVER GO WRONG BY COLLECTING OR OWNING THE BEST" http://www.knife-collectibles.com
