The online community of knife collectors, A Knife Family Forged in Steel

Your knife is a R1128 " The Trapper" with Cocobolo handles- This was the first year they did not use Delrin as handle material- They made 2 versions of this knife -Yours has angled center pins with the handles glued on- They made another version with the center pins straight up and down with the handles pinned on which is slightly more desirable-Average price range around the net for new, unused is $45-75 dollars- I would subtract 20% from that for your knife- I know you have the box , if you don't have the paperwork maybe a little more-On the plus side, the handles are cocobolo and the Trapper is just about the most collected pattern out there in a folder- This is just my opinion, the pros like Gus Marsh may have a different opinion- Overall, a very collectible and desirable knife.
Glen, I have a mint one just like it. Worth from 50-70 $. Used and sharpened some would bring the price down but not sure how much. Great knife, since its used some, you can carry and enjoy it.
Those are beautiful scales, love cocobolo. No in depth info from me, just admiration for a nice knife.
Thank You for all the info. everyone.
