I'm carrying a Cuda Maxx (5.5" blade) so I got something little and pretty to carry along with it.

It's a Parker, etched "1986 American Blade Collector's Club - Limited Edition -*one of 3,997." Mother of pearl and abolone inlaid handles.

What do you think of it? Is this a decent knife? What do you figure it's worth?
 
Wow,


It has been a few years since I have seen one of these. Four or five years ago they could be had in the 80 to 100 $ range.

In the last few years there has been a pretty strong rise in interest and value of many of the Parker patterns. So I would have to bet that they would go for a bit more since this is a nice one that was probablly produced to relatively high specs. Some of the Parkers hold there own in quality even compared to knives from companies known for high quality today. (Keep in mind that is not true of all of of their patterns, but it is especially true of the Seiki produced knives.)
