This GEC 97 in jigged cherry wood handle came today. Another wooden handled knife. Finding some really nice wooden handles lately.

Recently got this wonderful Bulldog Wharncliffe whittler dress in the prettiest Ivory from our own Mr. Gary Kennedy. Thanks again Gary, I can't stop looking and handling this one.

Folding knife of the pilot of the USSR Air Force

The knife was designed in 1983 to supply the pilots of the air force as an element of flight equipment. Since the product was inaccessible to the average consumer, it was very popular both among the military and among civilians. Serial production of the knife stopped in 1991.
Part of the survival kit НАЗ-8 (НАЗ - wearable emergency reserve).
A very rare knife I've long been looking for.

Is the notch near the end of the saw blade original or did a previous owner modify it?

Eustace, could the notch be used to open cans ? . ::shrug::
And is the tab near the the bail a blade lock? Which blade does it lock?

Congrats on the fine acquisition .... ::tu::
