Parker Bros. MK1

[narco99]

Anyone familiar with a knife that looks like a Gerber MK1 but made by Parker Bros.? The knife has a O.D. green handle and the wasp shape with serr.

Hi,

Yes, these were a Japanese contract knife made up for Parker Knife Company out of Tenn. These probably date from the early 80's to the beginning of the 90's.

The value is kinda low $15-25 depending on condition. Check Ebay for current prices. Some Parker knives are developing a small collector following.

HTH.

Bob, thanks for reply. I spotted this knife in a pawn shop for $70 which I thought was a little high. Didn't know if it was some weird and rare collector MK1 or not.
