Ive checked at the old catalogs but I cant seem to find a way to date a knife that a family member recently gave me that he bought in (what he thinks) is the late 90s but their memory sucks so it could have been in the 2000s lol - It definitely looks like a 1005/SS Eagle, but even the older catalogs do not have the A M K stamp on the larger blade model, just the short one

Is there a place with more catalogs than https://archive.org/search?query=creator:"Al+Mar+Knives" ? Or any other way of dating this? Difficult to see

Look up the 1002SS, it matches your knife more closely.

Shows listed as the stainless steel Hawk knife. Arizona Custom Knives has one listed.
 
I feel your frustration. I have 2 beautiful dealer folder catalogs with color pamphlets, price lists and more, from what I am guessing is the late 80's. None of these has a date anywhere. I would appreciate any help dating these.

Boy you are getting allot of help for a non gold member :o)! anyways -The only person I know of who could be fairly accurate on the date would be Jeff Hall on Facebook page vintage Al mar knives..

From my experience it was made after 1985.. Def not first gen 79-82
