question about a kabar barlow

I can't find any info on it,and I can't take a picture yet, it doesn't belong to me but it is a Stag Barlow, clip point with a dog head shield. Did Kabar make such an animal? Approximate value?
It is in what I would call excellent condition, some might even call it mint.
Blade etch reads

KABAR
Oleans, NY

EDIT; It says Ka bar lo on the bolster

It is a sweat looking knife, and I think what he is asking is fair, but I don't know much about Kbar.

Thanks in advance

Tod

Tod they did make them; I have seen them before and they go for around; $85-$125. A member (MKC) here posted in the "General Knife Information" back on June 24th 2008; about the first KaBar doghead. He has a super doghead stag jack; he may able to give you more info.

Oh that one is sweet! I like the bolster work. What does the blade etch say?

It commemorates something I am sure. 100 Years sounds possible.
