Captain DL-2R

This is a new one on me. Anybody have one? Just how rare are they?

I ain't paying $35 for it but I would like to know where the heck it came from?

I have the same knife except it had a white cardboard over the box shown in the one on ebay. I say ‘had’ because my dog chewed up one corner of the sleeve when he was a pup.

There was a black one & a red one, the DL2B & DL2R.
They were made from 1987-1990 and sold new for $19.95.
I bought mine in 2006 and paid about $10 for it then.

Here is a copy of the Schrade flyer on these knives. It is dated 1986, so it was probably printed for their annual sales meeting, held every October or November, where the salesman received flyers and pricelists for the coming year.

Thanks Dale

I was hoping you would chime in. This one was out of left field for me.
