📝 Product Description

Up for sale is an exceptionally rare and highly collectible Vintage Aitor Survival 21 Knife, featuring a premium Genuine Stag Horn / Antler Handle. While standard variants of the legendary Survival 21 shipped with wood or synthetic polymer scales, this factory stag configuration represents a high-end collector's layout from Aitor's peak production era in Spain.
The Survival 21 is famous for its Full-Tang construction—providing incredible structural strength compared to later hollow-handle survival models. It features a heavy-duty blade, an aggressive dual-pattern sawback spine, and an integrated lanyard hole. Kept in good vintage condition, this is a fantastic centerpiece for any serious militaria or vintage knife collection
