Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

I just acquired a Gil Hibben designed knife from a gun show. It is number 003 of the commerative knife for the Kentucky Classic November 15,16 , 1995 Annual World Karate Championship. It has the Kempo Karate Ensigna in metal seated in the handle. The sheath is signed on the back by Gil Hibben and the blade is engraved with the Kentucky Classic, date as shown above and a circle with martial arts logo for Kempo Karate.

 

With the number 003 being on the blade.

 

Is there some way to determine how many of these were made and if this knife something worth keeping. Thanks in advance...Ronnie
