Robert, I suggest putting that sucker on your watch list on Ebay and see if it sells.

You can also try doing an "Advanced Search" for "Completed Listings" and see how much they have sold for in the recent past. I might be mistaken but I think the Completed Listings only go back the last 15 days.

Completed Listings on Ebay are a good way to gauge what items are currently selling for.

Good luck!

I saw a Buy it Now on Ebay earlier of my model trapper for $99. The handle was not quite as good as mine but the the blades were a little better. That doen't mean the guys gonna get that but I had no idea those old knives in that shape sell for some where around that price. Anyone have any input on this. Thanks.

Thanks Railsplitter, I enjoy owning these old knives, they bring back so many memories. I don't know what the value is on them being vintage, used old knives but to me and my family, they are priceless. It's great learning the history and deta on them. Thanks for your help and anyone else that wants to help.

The first puicture is my fathers Premium 3 1/4" Jack 1940-1964. The second picture is my old Trapper, 1965-1969, with a narrower clip blade and a shorter bolster. Two old knives that have been in the family for a while.

Thanks sir, yes I am very glad to have it and all the others from him and my grandfather. I'll post pictures of it, when I get some help.

Hi Robert. Here's a link from AAPK. Scroll down almost to the bottom and there's a brief description of the 087 pattern. Looks like Case started making it sometime prior to 1940.

Being your Fathers knife, you must be quite proud of it. Would love to see your pics.

Hey thanks Railsplitter, I got the info from AAPK. Every time I would type in the pattern number in their Case info at the bottum of this page, it would come up with that date. The stamp has to have it dated at 1940-1964. Your pictures are correct, just mines alot older, I wish mine was in as good a shapes as yours. It was one of my fathers knife users. It's pretty good shape, I'll post a picture of it later.

Your date of 1940-1964 is correct. The 22087 has been around for a long time. Not sure where the dates of 1976-1977 are coming from.

I have one that was made in 2011:
