Trying to date my Model #1

[T.A.C.]

A little help appreciated. Saw article by Rhett Stidham but not sure I have date of my piece correct. Spacers are Going from the guard, bright red, then white, then dark greenish, then white, then red. Five in all. Loooking to get accurate date. Help is appreciated. I thought 60's ??.
plain button sheath. with plain hone. Compass in handle.

That is an early 1990's knife. Sullivan sheath, baby dot snaps, thin spacers.

Thanks for reply. Are you getting the date from the spacers. When I read up
on the knife, it said the (5) spacers like I described meant it was from the late 60'S to mid 70"s.:. Did you get the age just from the sheath ?

Thin spacers. Sullivan made sheath which started in the very late 1980's.....

So 1980ish. Thanks for your help. I just thought being it had a thin
handle, and compass in the butt it was older. Thanks again, Tom C.

No, not 1980-ish. Very late 1980's to 1995.

Thanks so much for your help. I bought a few pieces years back, and just trying to date them. I have
another model #1 that I don't know the age. Maybe you would have an idea? any help would be appreciated.
It has a large center band in the spacers, and the stone in the sheath pocket says" "fine India -made in US of A." Thanks so much.

This one has a sheath from the late 1980's and a knife that was likely built in the early to mid 1980's.
