Jeff the 111mm Hunter has been a while for a while ( at least ten or so years, probably longer). I'm not sure if it is in the current line or not. In 2008 the knife was adopted by the RAF for their survival kits.

While not green, it did come up so I'll post a picture of one. The small gutting blade doubles as a belt cutter a belt cutter. Strangely the Brits did not swap out the cork screw for a Phillips Screwdriver

Jeff,

You're not thinking of paisley, are you? That design looks similar to a paisley, but I don't think it is...

jeff said:

back years ago this pattern was used in alot of drapery and bed coverings..i cannot think of the name of this design for the life of me..and why they decided to put it on the blade..i couldnt answer that. but it does look kinda cool. maybe someone can think of the name i am looking for?

jeff said:

yes sir, the tang says ka bar and the blade has a scroll that looks like a leaf type pattern.

Tobias Gibson said:
