There is a Red plastic handled #5L in that catalog as a part of a set only.
I will look for it later today.

The #5L handle is on page 21 of the 69-70 Xacto Catalog, only in the #92L and 95L Tool Sets. It does not appear as a separate item in the price list, so I assume it was only in the tool sets, unlike the #6L.
Just checked my three #5 knife handles; they all have the threads at the bottom of the collet and have the washer. Did not check the #5 handles on my Hand-Drill and Coping Saw. They are on REALLY tight and I fear I would damage them trying to get them off the tools.

The photo of mine is accurate mine appears to be almost a dark brown in color. Not sure if oils over the years made it turn darker or if it was always that color?

My #5 handles are all the reddish dark brown like yours, Steve.

A #7kp (knife pencil) that combines a #3 style knife collet at one end and a mechanical pencil at the other.
Only have seen them in catalogs, no idea when they stopped making them.

I don't remember seeing them at Charrette ( the company I worked at where I bought most of my X-acto tools ) either and we carried the full line of X-acto. It is something I would have bought just because... It is shown on the back of the card the No. 3 came on.

Estes Carried a full line of XACTO supplies as you know. Here’s some still in the packs offered in specials and sets. Also is a tiny pen knife from the 60s catalog, still in its wrapper, unused. Plus mine, which I got from Estes in the 60s,,built many thousands of rockets ! Note the old Glue Gun & Wind Meter ! Just For Fun.....
