Just acquired this nice knife with brown stitching on the sheath.... was the brown thread used one year or could it be ordered for several years? Does the black micarta fade even if never used? It seems lighter to me or maybe dark dark brown.
Brown thread was used by us from Jan.1998 through mid 1999.RMK probably had a few sheaths on hand when we switched to the cream color we use today , so brown stitched sheaths could have gone out for a couple months after that.

thanks for that bit of information STIKMAN....what do you think about the color of the micarta? Here is another pic of it next to a model 10-5
