help identifying a kife ( duck stamp )

[stinkyspice]

hey guys this my first pocket knife ever given to me by grandfather just wanted help identifying it and figuring out just what it is. the blade say 1989/1990 federal duck stamp and its a schrade just maybe the history and maybe even value? i dont plan on selling this as this has much sentimental value just wandering how much it might be worth. i used to use it all the time but now have alot of knives and just sits in the drawer and i fondle it every once in a while, this is the knife that got me in love with blades. actually used to carry it to school when i was 11 ( totally not legal but i never got caught lol ) any help would be much appreciated

Ask again in the Schrade area for more information.

For about sixteen years, Imperial Schrade issued commemorative knives in conjunction with the Federal Duck Stamp Program. This is one of those, as noted, from the conservation stamp issue year 1989-1990 (duck seasons spanned the new year). They were usually issued in carved/engraved wooden gift boxes and included a metal copy of the Federal Duck Stamp. The covers on this issue are goncalo Alvez hardwood. This one is the "DS3" issue and was limited to 6,000 pieces.
