model 18 questions

Has anyone ever seen a model 18 with out saw teeth? Did the shop ever made any?

I've never seen a 'toothless' Model 18.

I've been reading the RKS Newsletters, however, and there is a photo of a Model 18 crutchtip on page 6 of issue #26 (March, 1995) which looks to either have no teeth or teeth so small that I cannot make them out. The accompanying article discusses combat used RMKS, including Col. Joe Kittinger's Model 18, but does not specifically reference the pictured Model 18 (nor does the photo caption mention that the knife lacks teeth).

Saw, no saw option.....available today from the shop.

Gary Clinton has one on his website right now.

thank you everyone. I searched the Knife of the week thread for Model 18's (all 43 pages) and never saw one without the teeth. I was starting to panic. I can't figure out how to reduce the photo enough to get it all in one photo. it has the knurl handle and the skull crusher cap with compass. needs to go back to the shop to remove scratches and sharpen. it looks like whomever tried to sharpen it didn't have a clue.
thanks again
