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
