These are my three new 171s.From bottom to top #2292,#3256,and #10,433.The bottom two have stamped tangs.The top knife has an etched tang stamp.Michael I don't know if you have a 10,433 Birdshead in your records.The #2292 came in a black sheath and is the best of the bunch.These three give me 6 in my collection.Rusty,from what I paid for these three your knife, since it is NIB, has tripled or better in price from what you paid.The middle knife shows signs of abuse.Some genius must have tried to baton it and broke the tip off.The blade is short and has been reshaped.Arnold

Let me know there Tejas.

P. S.
Nice score, but we can only count those as about 2.85 knives. :D
 
Very nice to see the 171's Arnold, it is a shame about the center one though.
the black sheath seems like it has shrunk in the wash compared to the others. very good news also regarding my 171BH, thanks Arnold.

Nice line up Arnold, I think you may have there the most seen at any one time together since the factory.

Oh sure, make me choose...:grumpy:

OK, I'm sending you a Private Message here, with an avatar.

Then, I'm sending you a message "OVER THERE" with a different avatar because sizes are different...and I just couldn't choose one.

Come back to this thread, which I've now officially hijacked, and complain if you need any more help.

Stay tough...like a 'Dillo.
