Has anyone here got an 83OT ??

This has always been a contentious issue, and what i do is stare at the 3, long and hard, and you will see a 3, not an 8.
That's my 2 bobs worth.

LOL.... that is just like me when I hunt arrowheads.... My hunting pards tell me if I look long and hard enough at those rocks I am holding, one of them will turn into an arrowhead....LOL... (BTW, it works!!)

As near as I can tell, two bob is between 13 and 14 U.S. cents, so I am giving you extra measure of credibility.
There are plenty of sloppy threes out there, but in those two patterns there are NO EIGHTS! NONE! NADA! ZERO! Get over it!

Hey remember when you were a kid,and they had those comics books that had two pictures that looked exactly alike until you really started looking at them and then you had to circle the one that did not match the real picture.In my opinion it seems the 83OT knife tang letters are smooched together(is that a word for knives)and the S on the 830T name is not plumb with the other letters in the line it appears askew not in line.
