Kershaw - KAI folder ??

Space_Cadet

I don't have a funny description.
I got this extremely rare knife. I couldn't find any information about it anywhere.
It is a Kershaw folder, but this one was made in Japan.
And it is dedicated to South African Special Brigade forces. I don't know whether it was made as a collectors item, or something that was given to those who served in this Brigade in SADF/SANDF.
And another interesting part - I think that on the back of the box, in the upper right corner there is a symbol of KAI blades manufacturer (KAI's commitment | KAI FACTORY | KAI Group - https://www.kai-group.com/global/en/kai-factory/unique). That must mean they were those who made this knife. I really don't know what to make of it. Anyone has any ideas?

Imagining solutions for imaginary problems
My understanding is that KAI (a Japanese corporation) owns the brand Kershaw (as well as Shun and a few others). KAI USA is typically where our U.S. knives come from; but it's just the US subsidiary/holding of KAI. I hope I'm not spreading disinformation, it was always just my understanding. Nice knife, btw!
