I had e-mailed the seller asking for more information about this knife and I just got the following reply:

Ken,

Hello, Thanks for your interest in the knife. I bought this knife with an original sheath(BUCK PAT PEND-on the sheath) but I needed it for one of my other blades, it also came with the compass & pouch that I am selling in my other auction.

You are right, the marking is upside down, I own 2 other pat pend buckmaster 184s and I just compared them. I never noticed that the marking was inverted, So is this a Factory MUTANT???

The grapling pins (not original) came with a All Black 184 and I just added them to this stainless since I do not need them. I hope this helps and the photos will be on there way to you shortly, Thanks again for looking and your interest.

Phil

I will upload the photos here when I get them as this is certainly a rare find even if it has been stripped of it's original scabbard and other parts!

Here are the new images I got of this knife!
