Kershaw Trooper Dagger Model 1007, serial number 5173, with box and leather sheath is a early production model about 29 years ago. The near mint dagger is 9-3/8" overall. It is mint except for several rub marks on the very shinny blade that were probably made inserting the knife in to the leather sheath. It has not been sharpened. Double-edge blade with blood grove. Drilled for a lanyard, can be lashed to a pole to serve as a survival spear. Flat on the butt to allow for pounding on the handle. This one does not have the card with the production date, but we know it was made sometime between June 1980 and January 1981.
