RWW Posted July 12, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 12, 2020 After many years of looking, I finally stumbled on the saw / knife assembly used in the SAC E-1 survival kit. It is a14" long blued blade with the tip and back of the blade sharpened. They were made by the E. C. Atkins company and the only markings are C-5708 on the blade. The teeth on the saw are noticeably different that the "bow saw" teeth on the more common ones. The handle is a "nest of saws" type handle. The "SAC E-1 Kit" manual" says "The saw knife is designed primarily for use in making shelters from ice and snow, but can be used to butcher game or as a machete. The handle can be removed from the blade and used as a small vise for tying flies." Below are several photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
