Post by raincrowe »

I would like to feature a Ka-Bar Whittler which has a 14K solid gold Dog's Head shield completed in April 1984....with total production 250 for worldwide distribution and registered on the books of the Ka-Bar company at Olen New York... signed Richard J. Strum
Knife is included with a certificate card showing the Limited Edition...This knife has a serial number 145....Knife is (not a split spring).
I would like to know if anyone has another knife like this... I've never saw another....also the back of card indicates that there are sets
I would like to see another and learn more information all discussion welcome ::tu::
Here is another Ka-Bar knife that I featured earlier!!

Your knife is not considered a true KA-BAR by some as it was made by Queen in Titusville, PA as were most if not all of the KCC knives. Here's a page from the KCC Reference Guide. Actual production was 251 and there were no sets of this model.
