This Al Mar folder is made in the early 90's. The Quicksilver is a member of the 'Secret Service' serie and was first introduced in 1979. In the early 90's it was modified and a serrated version is also available since than. A very nice and unusual industrial design in my opinion.
The pouch is marked with the Secret Service logo stamp and also comes with a sharpener. The blade is stamp marked 'Seki-Japan'. Remarkable is that the knife has an fixed-on pocket-clip. This can not be taken of or replaced. Even though the blade has no pivot screw and can not be modified, it has no blade play what so ever.
