Aaahem!
Notice the holes in the sheath for sewing to the lapel.
This one is plastic, but I'm thinking S30V w/kydex. Maybe a matching SMATCHET! for those social occasions when a lapel knife just isn't quite enough.

Plastic may beat security. OTOH with all of the paranoia about potential weapons, especially in schools, a sharp pencil or ball point pen makes a deadly, lethal weapon.

Crayons and markers only! And only those made with non-toxic materials. 
Lapel knife...interesting. Whatever happened to the Arkansas toothpick?

I've seen some history on the original OSS and Canadian ones. I was wondering if anyone knew the date of manufacturer for the ones pictured. Still looking...
