what SAK is this?

Looks like a Classic Alox. Mile wold know for sure.

Thanks bud
seems it is a retired model

That poor seller seems to be of the mistaken belief that the old beat up SAK is some sort of collector's item, or something :|

That's just a Spartan, that you can pick up at your local WalMart for less than 20 bucks, or even on Amazon.  I always hated the ordinary Red scales, so a while back, I bought a couple (in Translucent Blue and Translucent Red):


Terrible picture; dependable knives.

I almost never use these blades, since I got into locking blades a few years back. I don't EDC them, any more, and haven't, for quite some time.  They get used, at home, but very rarely.  I'm no longer a fan of friction folders, at all.  I prefer a locking blade, for any serious cutting.

I just wish I could find some nice Alox scales for my Champion Plus.  They seem to make Alox scales for everything, but that.  What's up with that?

Here's a link to an interesting write-up on the Spartan, fond on SAKWIki:

That is by no means a 1950s Spartan. It used to be called Standard before, and there a number of signs you can tell a SAK's age - old shield, tang stamps, slotted corkscrew etc. This is worth 5$ at best
