My new Model 17. It has a nickel silver hilt with a carbon blade. Riveted Johnson Sheath. Interestingly the original owner not only had their name etched but also had the exact time and date Neil Armstrong first stepped on the Moon. Question, does anyone know when the RMK shop stop using stainless hilts and started using nickel silver on the Astro?

I'm guessing this knife was made around 1975?
